Jember Setetalk be Arba Minch

Jember Setetalk be Arba Minch: "Sunset in Arba Minch"
Arba Minch is a very naturally-gifted town. It is home of the Nechi Sar National Park which is behind the mountain seen in this picture. The town also has forty springs and two nice lakes: Lake Abaya (also seen in this picture) and Lake Chamo. Lake Abaya is in very bad shape due to the high levels of erosion in surrounding mountains which have been heavily deforested. The water is red-colored because all the rivers coming from the mountains carry loads of soil eroded from those deforested mountains. It is sad and a shame that such a beautiful scenery has not been well kept. Lake Chamo is in better condition.
