Qaoçe

Near the Sak River, Qaoçe lies in the dry country of Bushmanland, where shallow pans interrupt the plateau. The Sak connects the Brandvlei depression with the broad Grootvloer, carrying water only at intervals through a landscape of saline flats. Rain can briefly transform these basins into wetlands; as the water recedes, the damp ground and vegetation provide grazing long after the surrounding country has dried.
