Challenger Site



We have the challenger program in the hills of Manguna, In Jos, about 80KM from Jos town. The City of Jos is the coldest and highest in Nigeria. It's temperature is the closest to temperate country's as you can get in Nigeria all year round. Jos is a city in Nigeria's middle belt and is the administrative capital of Plateau State. It is located at 9°56′N 8°53′E, high on the Jos Plateau. It is unfortunate the spate of violence that has marred it's otherwise peaceful records in the past few years. It is the Muslims trying to establish a beach head of sort over there and claim certain rights and areas as theirs. 

Here are a few pictures of the area that I took from last year's scouting trip with Paul and Yemisi. I will have to compress the videos and post some.
