Let's begin by imagining how the camel might get the bananas across the desert. If she starts off with 1000 bananas and carries them 1000 miles, she won't be able to return for the rest of them because she won't have any bananas to fuel her trip back. She won't have any bananas to give to her friends either, because she will have eaten them all during the journey. This suggests that the camel needs to cache piles of bananas at certain points in the desert so she can actually move some of them instead of using them all for fuel.
Suppose the camel does this:
Pick up 1000 bananas.
Carry them one mile into the desert, eating one on the way.
Keep one of the bananas for the trip back.
Repeat steps (1-3).
Repeat steps (1-2).
At the end of this, there will be 2995 bananas, which are 999 miles from the city. The camel will also be 999 miles from the city.
