The Suguta Valley is a low-lying area of salt pans,mud flats and volcanic cones surrounded by awesome mountain ranges. Once,a part of Lake Turkana,the place is one of the hottest and most unpleasant corners of Kenya,a hell-on-earth where midday temperatures can reach 1400 F in the shade. Nomadic Turkana herdsmen bring their livestock here for salt but they never stay long.

Semi arid thorn scrub best describes the vegetation of northern Samburuland where semi nomadic pastoralists eke out a living from an unforgiving land. The region is characterised by grand vistas, poor soil and an unreliable rainfall.

Inhospitable,semi-arid,thorn scrub country northwest of Lodwar,the administrative centre of the Turkana people. All the hills and mountains are of volcanic origin. The tall flues of termite mounds dot the landscape; their colour shows the soil structure deep underground.

Semi-arid,thorn scrub country,littered with lava debris,near Parkati. Being extremely hot and dry,the area is only used by the nomadic Turkana for grazing goats and camels. No crops will grow there.

A young Turkana man looks out over Lake Turkana, often referred to as the Jade Sea due to the colour of its alkaline water. The barren, windswept country at this southeast corner of the lake is strewn with basalt lava boulders.

The alkaline waters of Lake Bogoria are a favourite haunt of lesser flamingos. The barren shoreline is dotted with steam jets and geysers reflecting its volcanic origins.

- A view of the treeless,barren country along the southeast shores of Lake Turkana. Lava debris is omnipresent here,making walking a perfect misery. In dry weather,after the seasonal water pans and rock pools have dried up,the Turkana water their livestock at the lake.
- Euphorbia shrubs and small 'wait-a-bit' thorn trees (Acacia brevispica) thrive among a confusion of basalt lava boulders at the southern end of Lake Turkana,near Sirima. Extensive lava fields in this region are an aftermath of Pleistocene volcanic activity and make walking a perfect misery.

- Awesome mountain ranges of volcanic origin surround the low-lying Suguta Valley,south of Lake Turkana. It is one of the hottest and most unpleasant corners of Kenya where midday temperatures rise to 1400 F in the shade - if you can find any
- South of Lake Turkana lies the Suguta Valley,the lowest and one of the most inhospitable place in Kenya. Vegetation is sparse and the area mainly uninhabited except for Turkana herdsmen and their goats. Most of the water there is too saline even for livestock to drink.
- A series of lava rock pools are situated just off the southern end of Lake Turkana,northern Kenya's Jade Sea. The colour of the water is caused by extreme alkalinity in which green algae with a high chlorophyll content grows.
- The alkaline waters of the seasonal Lake Logipi,situated at the northern end of the Suguta Valley,are a favourite haunt of lesser flamingos because the blue-green algae upon which they feed grows prolifically in the lake's shallow waters.
- Lake Baringo is one of two freshwater lakes of the Eastern Rift Valley. Its waters are red with suspended solids due to bad soil erosion in its catchment area,which has been caused by inappropriate agricultural practices
