"It is all very beautiful and magical here---a quality which cannot be described. You have to live it and breathe it, let the sun bake it into you. The skies and land are so enormous, and the detail so precise and exquisite that wherever you are you are isolated in a glowing world between the macro and the micro, where everything is sidewise under you and over you, and the clocks stopped long ago."

Ansel Adams

After the #Drakensberg trip in April I did one more in May during my South Africa sojourn. This time in the Cathedral Peak area repeating a route from 30yrs ago in the opposite direction. It follows the contour path in the #Xeni cutback all the way to the foot of the #Tseketseke pass. It is still as rugged and overgrown in places like all those years ago.
