"A beautiful fresh powder snow day to do an alpine type hike in SA!
We started late at 12:00 because the traffic was so bad getting in. We set ourselves a turnaround time of 3pm as we needed to get down and set up camp and a braai in the snow. At 14:30 we were getting very close but the snow depth kept increasing.
Made it to within 50m of the summit but the snow became up to waste deep and it was already 15:30. We made the difficult but responsible call to turn around as we estimated it would take another 30min through the last deep snow to reach the summit.
In all a great snow adventure day in the mountains with Jess. " — CraigBurnsStellenbosch • Aug 28, 2021
