"Tried to get some hakea trees but ended up with too much seeds to carry out. Climbed up Nerinakloof, hacked, slept in Paddagat (Cape Nature permit required), went up to summit for breakfast with a view. The way back was over Square Tower and to Saaltjie. The car was parked at MTO offices as per MCSA MOU with MTO." — LeRoux-Kotze • May 28, 2023

"Summit of Square Tower Peak via a new Frontal Route I scouted out.
I grade the route at D-Grade.
Was more challenging than we expected, was hoping for C-grade.
Will publish the route description in the next MCSA journal.
Would recommend only doing in dry conditions as the south face remains damp, slippery and loose for a while after rain. " — CraigBurnsStellenbosch • May 1, 2023

"7:30 Start from Helderberg NR. 3 hours up and 2:30 down. Perfect Autumn day with zero wind. The well maintained Protea trail up the south side is a rarity climbing mountains and makes the approach so much quicker and more enjoyable. The Waboom trail coming down a nice alternative to just an out and back. In Autumn a lot of shade even on the way down at lunch time. Take water +++ as none on the trail. The last gully going up from the northern (Stellenbosch) side to the base of the main Dome is the worst part with a lot of loose rocks in the path which basically goes up the way the water comes down. Awesome 360 views on top." — dawidburger • Apr 16, 2023

"A quick hike up from the waterfront to Signal Hill. Took some seldom used paths that were steep and slippery in places but overall not very challenging because of such a short ascent." — davidcase • Apr 16, 2023

"An awesome overnight hike to summit the mighty Sneeuberg.
I always enjoy the scrambling to the summit, and we found two tunnels which bypass exposed sections which I didn't know about. " — CraigBurnsStellenbosch • Apr 9, 2023
