Feedback Saturday 10th September: Kloofnek Pipe Track

We go up there?




Clearly a good joke being enjoyed by Gayleen's sweep group
















Given the damp, chilly start to the morning, it came as something of a surprise to see such a good turnout of 31 for the run along the pipe-track above Camps Bay to Corridor Ravine and back.

Although this is not a particularly challenging route in terms of gradient, the terrain certainly is: tree roots, loose rocks and stones, a flowing river and in places a barely submerged water pipe to negotiate as well as the slippery stone steps near the ravine. The fynbos is clearly thriving from the recent spattering of rain and once the clouds lifted, we were treated to a clear view of Lion’s Head and Camps Bay on the one side and the Twelve Apostles at our back. What a magnificent setting, and how fortunate we are to live in the Cape.

Congratulations to Alan Hammond on joining the Decurions by completing his tenth run with our group
