Table Mountain via Platteklip Gorge

Many of the Flotation '13 delegates stayed on over the weekend to enjoy the delights of the Cape, and yesterday Amanda and I led a guided hike to the top of Table Mountain, via Platteklip Gorge, the oldest and classic route.

Around 20 delegates joined us, and only three dropped out before the steep ascent through the narrow gorge.
















Initially warm and sunny, the capricious nature of mountain weather was evident when we encountered mist and a distinct chill in the gorge, but the views from the top of the mountain were stunning.
