From 2,400m the land tumbles away over 900m into rugged country, the domain of nomadic pastoralists, before rising again 120km away. The views at Losiolo are arguably the most spectacular in Kenya of the largest, longest and most conspicuous physical feature of its kind on earth. Nigel Pavitt/ John Warburton- Lee Photography
