Feedback Saturday 5th March Silvermine NW


Despite the prospect of hot day ahead we had a good turnout of18 for our group walk/run which consisted of a good scramble up and along Steenberg Ridge to Elephant’s Eye lookout.  From there it was a long hot slog up the track to the Noordhoek lookout and its wonderful vista overlooking the Atlantic coastline.  Then a run down to the dam and without second thoughts a cooling and refreshing swim or dip depending on choice.  On the way back down the board walk some of us missed the turn off and only realised it after about a kay so amidst much grumbling turned back.
