Guess where?

Isn't Big Ears the peak near Thaba Phinong? I remember taking Big Ears off my khulu list when I looked over the region due to it being too close to Thaba Phinong (assuming Big Ears was the 3093m peak shown on the map). Is there a spot height on the map for this peak? My khulu list may be 1 peak short - I sometimes wonder if my next GT shouldn't be a very long N-S on the escarpment edge, almost a khulu hunt. It may be hard to arrange that though. Otherwise I can do the escarpment in stages, I already have plans for Andre's Knob to Sani Pass, 6 or so hikes like that I and will know the escarpment edge pretty well...

Ok Intrepid, lets see your next one, although you may have detected what the area of the Berg I know least is - Vergelegen, the only high berg EKZN reserve I have never set foot in... I seriously need to go and climb KaNtuba, Senhlolong, Mohlesi and the nowhere-near-as-high Nhlangeni some time (soon)...

Well done.

We have camped overnight not 500m from there but do not remember seeing it.

The peak in my photo is the 3106m spot height near Mangaun Pass. I suspect Big Ears is this one because of the order in which Murch listed it. I still need to have a fresh look at this particular area (re: your question on the Khulu on the thread) as I think there may well be room for another Khulu which escaped Murch's list.

Anyone else want a go that hasn't had a turn in a while?

Let me try a waterfall again :)
I anticipate that it should be a little easier than last time.

Looks like the one on the escarpment near Icidi Pass?

Spot on - too quick. I wondered how soon you would get it, as you mentioned it in my last post. I thought the angle from which it was taken might have prolonged the guesses a little longer. Hard to think that there is such a cozy little gully in this cutback....

Ok, no pics have been posted for over a month, so I'm putting up an easy one:

Isn't this your "Grimm's Castle" from the approach to Sleeping Beauty Cave?

I don't think I've posted this one before? :unsure:

Which peak is this taken from?
