"Three day hike out and back to Champaign Castle Peak starting from Monk's Cowl parking lot, to camp 1 at Keith Bush Camp, up Grey's Pass and overnight at camp 2 at iNkosasana Cave on top. Strongly recommend wearing a helmet towards the top of Grey's Pass. A rock flew past us at the switchbacks narrowly missing us by 2 to 3 meters. The second day on the way down it seemed as if the Dragon had awakened, there were 4 random rock falls thundering within the valley. I also found in the MCSA records that a girl was struck on the head by a rock a few years back. I don't want to dissuade people from hiking the pass but hopefully this advice will help protect somebody one day. Don't feel ashamed using a helmet, it's your life. There was no water at Keith Bush Camp, (late September). I recommend bringing up water from the last point which is the camp in the valley along the route (on the Mlwazini river). We made use of a still standing but clear little pond at Keith Bush for water. We boiled all of it to be safe, lots of others took a chance and drank straight from the pool and were fine the next day. There is a perennial stream at the top of Grey's pass which you can rely on.
