Hiking in Sekgakgapeng

I already wrote a bit about the hike my friend, Elizabeth, and I took during PST. A few weeks later we returned on the same route with several more and ended up crossing the mountain to the neighbouring village of Moshate, where we consumed cold drink (soda) and ate peanut butter sammiches. No snakes were encountered and there was great rejoicing.

Some photos:


Water containers overlooking the western edge of Sekgakgapeng.






Long tracks of pipe run up and down the mountains, bringing water from the few sources around to nearby villages.







Overlooking part of Sekgakgapeng or Moshate. I can't remember which.






All along the water tower. Left to right: Shae (sitting), Jan (Sepedi teacher), Richard, Ethan (bandana), Emily, Robin, Me, David.

There wasn't a trail, so we just followed the water pipes down.
