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

Just checked in with the ECR site where jonwells got that pic from:

Several people are stuck on the roads, and the N3 is closed between the Tugela Plaza at the bottom of Van Reenen's all the way to Villiers in Gauteng! Wow! Traffic from Durban is being redirected at Midmar.

Is anybody planning a berg trip this weekend?
Would be cool to spend a night on the escarpment.

Just to point it out, its kind of ironic that Frosty Ice is hiking in the snow this weekend!
I would love to be in the berg this weekend, too bad I have 4 UNISA tests and will be umpiring a wargames tournament...

I missed the snow by hours on Monday afternoon returning from Hiberdean. Cant believe the cold as I was swimming in the sea on Fri & Sat
Ja ja only vaalies in the sea this time of the year. We were saying in the car as we went over van Reenens that it's been ages since its been closed due to snow! WOW!
FYI people from Harrismith are not able to leave town nor do they have power.
