  • its wrong location
  • Are you sure? This exactly matches the photo' (save for the angle) in the Wikipidia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ngurdoto_Crater It also matches the coordinates, and map here: http://www.traveljournals.net/explore/tanzania/map/m3539606/ngurdoto_crater.html
  • Okay, here's where the confusion lies: You have this location marked on the map as "Ngurodoto Crater" - note there are three "o's" here. This is not the Ngurodoto crater, but rather the Ngurdoto Crater (which you have accurately listed here on the comments page). The actual Ngurodoto Crater is actually west of Arusha (by 70-80 miles), whereas the Ngurdoto Crater is in Arusha National Park (where this listing is). Follow me here? :) So basically, the name just needs to be changed on the listing so when you move your mouse over the area it shows "Ngurdoto" and not "Ngurodoto". Confusing, isn't it?? :)
  • Yeah, see - even I messed this up. Spelling is still wrong, but the *other* crater I was talking about is actually the "Ngorongoro Crater"... whew... now I think it's settled.
  • Changed it!
