We started our ascent from the lower cable station at 5am
Watched the city lights fade as the dawn lit the sky
Enjoyed this view of the small Robben Island to the right of Lion's Head
Once on the Contour Path we chose Platteklip Gorge as our path of final ascent
The rising sun catches the upper cable station
At the summit 3 hours later we were rewarded with this beautiful fluffy bed of cloud below us covering the city
Their is of course a much easier way of getting to the top of Table Mountain, and that is to take the aerial cableway which opens at 8am and takes all of about 4 minutes to do what took us 3 hours.
