Mercy Langat draws water from the small pool to fill her bucket on a nearly dry riverbed near Silibwet in Bomet County.
The dry rocks in Kapsasurwa stream are the picture of a perennial spring that has dried due to prolonged drought. The stream that rises from this valley is one of the many tributaries of River Nyangores, which further downstream joins River Amala to form the Mara River – the water body that sustains life in the Masai Mara and Serengeti game reserves.
