It's not only snow that could hinder your progress on the route.
There will also be some lively species watching you - even if you don't see them!
In addition to the rare Bell River Polar Bear, high-flying Lammergeiers and white-tail-bobbing mountain reedbuck, there is a good chance you could come across a flock of the Eastern Cape's finest !
They tend to be rather reluctant to give way on the trail !
