Day 3 - ...Is Coming on Down

Day 3 - ...and Up...

Day 3 - What Goes on Up...

There's no shortage of ascents...

Day 3 - The Pause

One has to stop and take in the sights, sounds and smells of the trail. Nature at its best.

Day 3 - The Tricky Terrain

It doesn't get easier on the Otter, just more beautiful each day.

Day 3 - Fresh and Good to Go

After the revelry of Night 2, everyone was keen on tackling the challenges that lay ahead of us on Day 3. We had some surprises in store for us later...

Day 2 - The Pleasure after the Pain

Faizel demonstrates after dinner, how best to celebrate the acomplishment of Day 2. A hardcore Cuban, courtesy of Graham and Izelda Warne. Only Bob Marley could have done this better ;-) Hansjoerg, you missed out on the Cuban, we'll have to make up for it another time.

Day 2 - Shells in the Vicinity

The Welcome Mat outside the cabin.

Day 2 - Log Cabins

Sharing stories of the days pains and pleasures outside the cabin.

Day 2 - Arrival at the Cabin

The cabins are strategically positioned to provide some of the best views. The Day 2 cabins were on the banks of the mouth of a river. The river was dry and it was low tide. The most refreshing thing to do was to walk in the cool waters of the tide.

Day 2 - Forest and Sea

We traversed from Forest to Sea right through the day. It really kept the interest and spirits up.

Day 2 - More Downs and Ups

Day 2 had its fair share of ups and downs - literally. This was another ascent with stunning views of the coastline we have been frequenting.

Day 2 - Is it Winter?

The water was extremely cold, yet it didn't look like Winter.

Day 2 - More Rock Hopping over the River

The perfect spot to take a break and absorb the environment.

Day 2 - Enchanted Forest

All were were missing were the fairies in this picture.

Day 2 - Blessed

We were blessed with amazing weather, even in the forest. This river was dry yet still picturesque.

Day 2 - Partners in Crime

Marie and Mary-Ann complimented each other perfectly as hiking partners. They supported each other so well :-)

Day 2 - One of the Many Reasons to Hike the Otter

Besides the fun company and great exercise, the views are the ultimate reasons to be on the Otter.

Day 2 - Men at Work

Nothing better to do than to strike a pose.

Day 2 - Sheer Drop

A view off the side of this rock courtesy of stuntman Ashley. Try it sometime.

Day 2 - The Rock

This rock formation was extremely high and had a sheer drop into the ocean below. It was like standing over the ocean.

Day 2 - Pacing ourselves

We pause to enjoy the views.

Day 2 - An Unusual Rock Formation

We had no idea how amazing this outlying rock formation was. We found out as we got closer...

Day 2 - Another view from the Summit

We were so high up and in awe of the beauty before us.

Day 2 - The Days First Summit

We walked from our cabins all the way up to the top of this mountain. We forgot our tiredness quickly at this lookout point. Simply breathtaking.
