From the hut, down past pells to the river, up to the ridge below Sybasberg, then all the way along to waaihoek to watch the sunset. Stunning as always.

Finally some nice weather and some time to get out for a decent mission. Traversed across to Perry Refuge, had a swim in the river there before heading back to pells via a slightly higher line along the ridges.
About 3km of path and the rest just rather rocky slopes. The type of terrain that eats shoes.. :p

Out on the path to the top of happy hill, then back and up the valley to waaihoek for a glimpse of the sunset before heading back down to the hut with some awesome red/pink skies!
