So I am the climbs convener for the UCT MSC, the cable car company has approached us and the MCSA and asked if we would be willing to help clean up rubbish in the hard to reach areas around the top cable car station. This means some people will be scrambling around the ledges below the stain and others abseiling in and collecting garbage on the ledges below the cable station.

If you are keen to come along and help us on the day it would be greatly appreciated by the cable car people but more importantly other climbers and the mountain!

We will be doing the clean up this Wednesday (21st) its a public holiday. The plan is to catch a lift up on the cable car (they will sponsor tickets) abb down collecting garbage along the way, then climb back up or more lightly walk round fountain ledge back up to the top station and catch a lift down.

We will be meeting at 8:30 on Wednesday Morning, and are hoping to be done by lunchtime.

If you are keen to help pleas let me know, as I will have to arrange tickets and other logistics. The info I need is: name, cell number, climbing experience (little or none is ok), gear you have and e-mail address. Pleas e-mail me these details.


RAD!
