I found this very interesting and a subject that has not crossed my mind at all. There cannot be many places that offer
such a facility.I suppose it is the kind of situation that one avoids thinking about until it is forced on you. Nice to know someone took the trouble to create this opportunity.
Way to go Jacques!

That would be a very strange experience...
I don´t mean "bad" just "strange"!

SteveOne of my oldest friends is in a wheelchair. I don't think he'd like the porter thing, but the quads are more like it. I'll forward him this link.

Matt NormanI've assisted on a Namibian hunt with a Disabled Veteran in a wheelchair with PH Peter Stoffberg. It takes extra attention/effort but can be done.
One of the hardest aspects is dealing with the airlines and the airports. They managed to lose our man's wheelchair and that added some drama.
Really nice when a visiting, mobility challenged hunter can be accommodated so royally, and accomplish the satisfaction of safari.

Now, what can be done for a mentally challenged hunter such as Walter, if he ever ventured out without his Kimosabe Saeed?
BTT.
This thread ought to be kept around for our less fortunate members
