By the time the sunshine reached our tents (note my ancient Kestrel tent at the back), it was about 8 am and most of us had already had a few cuppas and breakfast. We were not in a hurry (especially not Greig) so we finally started hiking at 10am.
It was the longer route back to Kromriver hut, down the valley below the Dome and around the south snd west sides. All on path today!
The little stream where we rested and crossed.
Du Toits Peak and these odd rock features! I wonder if this area deserves a name?
We headed off the path to the 1081m trig beacon with good views of the lovely Smalblaar and Elandspad (just a bit dominated by highway)!
Protea cynaroides alongside the path.
We had a leisurely lunch and swim at the excellent pool just above the hut.
Back at the cars, our party: me, Gordon, Stephen, Anton, Greig, Vanessa, Gavin.
GPS Track for the weekend thanks to Stephen:
