"Second day of the Bovin Lake backpacking trip.
On the 2nd day, we went up Spionkop Ridge and Loaf Mountain. GPS track under the latter.
Spionkop Ridge is named after a battle of the Second Boer War (1900). We faced our own "Battle of Spion Kop" with the wind. Mother Nature made the best effort to blow us off the mountains but we managed to summit the both peaks. Fortunately, the wind subsided near the summit block of Spionkop, where we needed it most.
Moderate scramble (Class II terrain) near the summit. The rest is a hike/ridgewalk from Bovin Lake." — Taras • Jul 1, 2018
"An easy extension from Newman Peak.
Less than an hour of steep hiking/easy scrambling from summit to summit. Adds 300-350 meters of elevation gain to your day.
Beautiful views...much better than Newman.
Worth it!" — mike_rogers81 • Jun 11, 2017
