Light dusting of snow on the high peaks was reported on Saturday by diverian who is camping at Injisuthi currently.

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

Sat image from Saturday morning:



Probably a good deal had melted before the image was taken. Not surprisingly, the high ridges around Champagne Castle, Mafadi, Giants Castle and Thabana Ntlenyana were snow covered. Also some smatterings visible in the Eastern Cape Berg, as well as the Central Range in Lesotho.

Where did you get that image from? I am always looking for up to date sat images of the burg.

Hi Dale and welcome.

Have a look at the discussion in Snow Watch 2011 from this point onwards (flip through several pages of that thread for numerous references to various links and how to interpret the images).

Sat image from yesterday:



Too much cloud around, but the highlying ridges from Lesotho a little in from the escarpment seem to have been hit the hardet. Afriski area got some too.

Been cold enough in Pmb to suggest some snowfalls around...

Well I was very happy to see snow falling for the second time in my life on 22nd April :)
However it only lasted for 15 odd minutes and it didn't even cover the ground at all. We where lucky enough to be on the Amphitheatre.
