It is a day trip. A full day due to all the stops for admiring the beauty, taking pics and getting endless illustrated lectures on how the earth was formed :D

If we over-do the stopping, we may have to take a shortcut off the mountain at sunset.

Total distance is about 30-40km. Of that about 10% should be 4LLc. The rest I prefer to take with all four wheels helping and an open center diff. Most of the day will be spent in 1st and 2nd gear. No deep sand or water crossings, but plenty rock outcrops to traverse as well as loose boulders to scale. A bow-saw or two will help our cars maintain their sexy looks in the Malls afterwards.

Re: Tie in the dots
Jaco,

The date has been settled and will remain (obviously barring interference from nature and/or life in general).

I'd have a heart attack if I had to wait a few months before getting my new Pajero into some open space :D
Re: Tie in the dots
We are planning a sodwana trippie in September. Would also like to make a day or so stop and meet some fellow clever people. Will keep an eye on this post.

Hi Guys,
Roelf thanks for that but don't delay becuase of me :shock:
I will be in America from the 15th till 28 or 29 Sept so I reckon my planned joining won't happen. We only heard today that our trip has been extented by a few days due to business reasons :cry: :cry:
You guys go ahead and enjoy maybe some day there will be another event to participate in.
I really hope you will have a great time. Greet those beautifull mountains for me. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Paw,

We will, thanks man.

When you are in the area, give me a shout and I'm sure we can give our Pajeros some of those mountains to chew on.

Gents,

This post to assure you that the date is clearly marked on my calander.

Could you give me an indication if you want me to enter into preliminary negotiations with Mark at Diggers Retreat around arrangements for the weekend. There is an option of camping or roomed accommodation.

Regards
Roelf
