Mwanza 4

 These are Brachistegia trees, typical 

of these dry forests.  They are left 

because they are poor firewood.

 Charcoal, the main product

of Mwanza.

Crushed rocks in three colors, 

another major product of  Mwanza.

The landscape was desolate.

 Trees of any size had been 

burned into charcoal.

 Even here there was beauty.

The land that we were studying 

is rough and dry and rocky,

With occasional patches of 

soil in the valleys.

Taking samples in the rocky 

soil was difficult.
