Platteklip Left B – Climbing Table Mountain one of the more dangerous ways

Cleaning up my website, I found a page that went missing from my memory and from the web for technical reasons.
A group of friends and I climbed Plattekkip Left B some years ago. The climb provided some really lekker pics.
So join some friends and I in a trip up Table Mountain like you probably haven’t seen it before.

Platteklip Left B Face

Be warned. This is not a stroll. It can be dangerous.

There is an easier route, the normal Platteklip Gorge route.

Lady with a flower

I loved her outfit and her tattoo so I asked very nicely and she posed for me with my flower.

Thank you to the unnamed lady.

This is the original full colour version

Then I removed all colour except the flower.

Then I brought back the hat.

Starry sunset

The power went down in Riviersonderend just at sunset. There was a beautiful sunset with stars in it.

Rondevlei – Sans Water

Rondevlei has been drained in preparation for burning the reeds. So there is not a lot of water around. We got some good pictures though.

Stormsvlei Detour

We were driving between Stormsvlei and Riviersonderend along the dirt road, not realising that the road was flooded. Admittedly the road had been flooded

but we didn’t realise the road was actually closed until I saw this in the rearview mirror.
