| mrchad9 | Platteklip Gorge  Date Climbed: Apr 20, 2008 | |
| Up Platteklip Gorge just down the road from the cable car. Planned to ride the car down but wind closed it- hiked down. Bright and sunny when I started but wind and fog enveloped before I made it over to the true highpoint. | |

| WouterB | India window? Date Climbed: Mar 27, 2008 | |
| Climbed it via the "India window". That's what it was called, don't know any other names. It was a more adventurous route for sure. | |

| A window finally opened after 4 days of waiting in Cape Town. About 1.5 hours up to trail junction despite being way out of shape and breathing nasty fumes downtown for 10 days. Beautiful place with neat vegetation. | |

| Easy climb on a beautiful day. The most beautiful place on earth? Earlier in the week, it was too rainy/cloudy to go to the summit, so I did a longer hike starting at the Platteklip Gorge trailhead around the side of the mountatin to Constantia Nek and then to my friends house in Hout Bay. | |
