Rain on the Mountains
When the River Rises
Flood preparedness as Kasese lives it: how warnings travel, what the district advises, where people shelter, and where the river works stand — with sources and dates.
Common Questions
Water supply, health care after the Kilembe hospital closure, the mine and cement plant, markets, the border and the equator — answered plainly, with sources and dates.
Who to Call
Radio stations first — warnings travel by radio here — then verified emergency numbers, the council, health care and the wildlife authority.
Rwenzori Trek: Fees & Fair Pay
What it really costs to trek the Rwenzori — the park fees by who you are (a Ugandan or East African citizen pays far less than a foreign visitor), the crew's published pay, and the two community operators — so you can plan a fair trek and make sure the local porters, guides and cooks are paid properly.
