Climbing the Eastern Arête was the final day in a 3 day Beginner Mountaineering Course for my client Callum. Joining was a friend Sonja from Gauteng who was in the area for some recreational mountaineering.
The route is only 3 pitches long and requires a 2-hour hike up steep grass slopes before the roped climbing starts. The pitches are all of moderate grade and there is a 2-hour hike down the Mashai Pass to base camp.
