DEEP RIVER 2004

The biggest waterfall (136 meters) in Macedonia is the one at "Deep river" bellow peak "Mal Korab". He exists only in the spring months as long as the snow melt beacuse there is no live spring for it. For a long time it was not taped for security reasons.
Finally the 3-men crew from Macedonian nacional television with technical cooperation from speleologist Zezovski Ivan, two guards from the national park "Mavrovo" and a local guide, at May 2004 went on a two-day tour to explore and tape that area. Manny thanks to Zezovski Ivan for the following photographs and explanations.

One of the few houses at village Bibaj where is only one older man living alone, that day he sould not be seen anywhere

At the beginning above village Bibaj

Curves on the trees in the forest above Bibaj, accordingly to the guide the reason is pressure from the snow on the downhill when the trees were younger

Guide's horses were a big help for the transport of the equipment, but also for safety, one was always ahead because of landmine dangeour
