The herds cross the Grumeti River in the western corridor

node

Moving north-west out of the drying plains, the herds pass through the western corridor and cross the Grumeti River. These crossings are smaller and less photographed than the Mara ones but establish that river crossing is a recurring feature of the circuit rather than a single annual event.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
