The upcoming hikes thread

Planning a very relaxed hike on 20th and 21st February.

Meet at Injasuthi, about 8'ish, and hike to Lower Injasuthi Cave. Should be there before lunch, afternoon to relax, explore and swim. Overnight LIC, and leisurely walk out on Sunday. The hike is about 9km, with a 400m gain in altitude over that distance.

Couple of spots open, let me know.

Cheers

Papa D I am very partial to that.
I wil private message you.

As to the question of whether or not I will do another GT any time soon – I suspect I wrote that I wouldn’t roughly a year ago, so who knows. But 3 GTs in 13 months, probably not doing that again! But really – my very long list of Berg goals has been reduced to 3 remaining goals, so perhaps I will calm down in 2016 and just do chilled stuff. Maybe just go for my remaining non-technical khulus as day hikes.

That lasted all of 10 days since writing

Myself and Hobbit are already talking about doing a GT in December this year. Dates depend on various variables, but probably 10 days with every night spent in a cave. There is space for one or two other people to join, so if anyone is keen - you are welcome to PM me. 11 months notice should be enough to facilitate training etc

Bump, still a couple of spots..

Anyone keen for a day hike to Sterkhorn, Sunday 7th Feb?
Plan to leave MC, meet up with saros and co, who are
coming down Gray's, at BMC, and ascend Sterkhorn to check
on the cross.

From Dbn or Pmb would be ideal, to share transport.

Let me know.

We're hitting a loop at Garden Castle this weekend - Pillar on Friday Night, up Mashai to Rhino Peak and then around to near Wilson's Pass on Saturday, descend on Sunday past Sleeping Beauty. Any other VE members in the area?

haha, also hitting garden castle this weekend well be in pillar cave on saturday tho! did the rhino couple of weekends ago, and its definitely worth the effort. Mashai pass is no joke tho

only takers at this stage were my son and I.
