Longish day through to Stony Camp with lots of great swims in the section before Breakfast or Whisky Camp. Went and found a cache I had left at Shelter Camp 12 years ago and miraculously it was still there, having survived 12 years of fire & flood! The going got very slow after Breakfast or Whisky as there were some less-confident kloofers in our group. Really enjoyed taking it easy though.

Slept in and got a nice late start down the river. Highlights as usual were Groenwater Falls, Tunnel Swim and Alder Ring Camp (where we spent the night). Recent fires had made the bundu-bashing sections easy and fast so this was a short day with plenty of chill.

Didn't use my watch in the kloof so this and the rest are estimated times and distances.

Spontaneous Witels trip with Charne, Roslyn, Vanna, Ian, Danielle and Thorsten. Just couldn't pass up the experience so booked my flights 2 days before! On day 1 we hiked up and over Point Hi, with an early start to beat the heat. Bit of a side-trip to visit good old Hoare Hut and Waaihoek Peak before the baking hot descent down happy hill into the kloof proper. Shade, swimming, bliss! Spent the night at Disa Falls.
