This morning we started a bit late and the heat took it's toll on the uphill. We started with the yellow and blue hiking trails, went through Disa kloof and then took porcupine buttress up to the saddle. We then went up to West Peak and headed down towards the other side of the mountain. The single track took us around West Peak and all the way back to Disa kloof. From here on it was down-hill all the way...
