Description
My approach to Pinnacle Rock was in thick mist and, since I had never been to the Rock before, I was unsure of its exact location or what to expect. The sudden appearance of the Rock out of the mist, towering above me was to me symbolic of the fresh mysteries that the Drakensberg always seems to present to us. The Pinnacle Rock overwhelming the tent beneath it suggests something that stands out from and makes an impact upon its surroundings. In life we have some experiences that make fundamental impacts upon our lives. My time spent in the Drakensberg has made just such an impact. When I look back on my life, the Drakensberg has been a Pinnacle Rock that has left an enormous sense of value to my life, the absence of which I feel would have left me the poorer. My experience of the Drakensberg is difficult to explain. When I am there, I seem to become part of it; when I am absent, it seems to be drawing me back. The Drakensberg is My Pinnacle Rock.
