Summer 2002 - Full Moon Adventure - Devil's Peak


denise, jean-marc, washer & Felix

Devil's Peak is far more accessible than most people think, the direct route from Tafelberg road up to the saddle and up one of the clearly nmarked paths to the top can be done in an hour if done at a good pace. Which is was we did when going up for full moon. Cape Town from up high as the sun sets behind Table Mountain which is so close you feel as if you could touch her but all you can do is feel her awsome presence.

The only other 2 adventurous people with the same idea as us were 2 enthusiastic drummers with their Jembees in tow.

The sunset was fantastic, The moon rising over Cape Town was spectacular from way up there looking down on Cape Town easing intself into another beautiful summers evening her lights sparkling lazily as you listen to the hum of the city.

Coming down, with the light of the full moon making torches redundant, was quite special. The mountain at night is both majestic and mysterious.
