CEDERBERG SENIOR SCOUT ADVENTURE 2022
Written by Keagan Coetzee
I recently completed the Senior Scout Adventure which took place from 15 to 23 December 2022. I recorded my experiences on the trail in order to share some of the highlights and possibly to excite any future participants.
We completed the Southern Peaks clockwise route, which earned us the Xtreme Award badge as it is the most difficult of the three itineraries even though Sneeuberg peak (the highest peak in the Cederberg) was removed from our itinerary due to a recent fire.
As a result of events during the 2016 Cederberg Adventure, we weren’t allowed to use any flame to cook or heat our food, so we mostly received canned food which added more weight to our backpacks.

Hello, my name is Samuel Higham and this is my experience of Daniel Wilbraham's First Class Camp which was held at Appleton on 21 and 22 May 2022.
When we arrived, we unpacked all our equipment and started putting up our tents. This was done in an orderly fashion and our tents were put right next to one another forming a small kind of village. Once our village started to take shape, we built the entrance to our campsite which consisted of staves held up by three ropes on each side.
