Reading this thread before this weekend confused me a little because Tony's write up did not match the waypoint or track I had, so there seems to be quite a few variations of Tsepeng Pass.
So far from what I can gather:
Tony, Intrepid & co did the main gully (yellow arrow)
Ghaz & Fitness did a gully just to the left of the yellow arrow
Elinda & co seem to have done the same as above
Myself & co did the red arrow (I had this as a waypoint & track, and it had a cairn)
This is looking down from the top at this spot -29.746380 29.136967
The top was very steep & narrow, and had a few scrambles with plenty of ice around.
Once out of the narrow gully we just made our way down the grass slopes to the main riverbed at 2630m

This gives a good idea of the top of this gully

Take nothing but litter, leave nothing but a cleaner Drakensberg.

For comparison, see the
Tsepeng Pass North
thread, which seems to be the one marked on the Geomaps.
