fog

If the route up the front of a mountain is a frontal, is a route up the side a sidle? In which case I sidled up Muizenberg Peak a short while ago to get up above the fog bank which apparently stretched from somewhere in the Atlantic all the way along the coast to the Eastern Cape. It was very dense around my house but thinned towards the mountain and I guessed the view would be pretty above it, so up I went...

Muizenberg Village and Surfer's Corner was just visible below the fog bank, and the Hottentot's Holland mountains slowly came into view through windows in the mist as the wind blew it North until I climbed above it...

Facing South I could see a couple of ridges peeking above the fog that covered the rest of the peninsula and reached as far as I could see out to sea...

After wandering up along the ridge line, tarrying to breath in the views and take some more photos, I decided that it would be prudent to find the path again before it got completely dark!
