In the high alpine meadows of the Drakensberg, eland graze on the lush grasses. But this area is a danger zone. The air at these altitudes is so dry that rain evaporates before it hits the ground. A lightning strike ignites a fire that quickly engulfs the mountain in thick smoke, destroying the eland’s precious pasture.

thats so awesome but getting through all
that smoke would be hard work
Started watching Drakensberg, but quit. Why have a narrator if the soundtrack is so loud that it drowns them out. I tune in to nature shows to see and hear about nature, not be deafened by music inappropriate to the subject.
Just finished watching Drakensberg – loved it! Excellent photography, narration and music (which by the way I thought to be very appropriate). In fact that’s why I came to this site – to see if I could find out who did the music?
