4x4AG Most Extreme Trip-Baboons Pass 9-11 August 2019.

[Bugger]

If I join then I’ll need Chalet accommodation
Ramabanta and Semonkeng
My Wive will accompany me but not on the Trail
This means I can take a Passenger

My Suggestion might be to do the trail the Friday
Which gives the Saturday for repairs and or Friday night to possibly sleep on the Pass if need be

how is you wife going to get to Semongkong? if she is not with us on the trail? What happens if we need to sleep on the pass with a breakdown? is she going to travel alone ? it is 50km via tar

I’ll be Towing Tiny on a Trailer
She will have The Touareg to Drive
It is Tarr All the way to where we will get off the Trail

But Maybe she don’t go At all and one of the Other 4x4AG members go with me
Then I’ll leave Trailer etc in Ramabanta
And when we go back load and go home

Hi Guys not to keep anyone in suspense for too long, I have made a decision to give up my spot on the trail, would have loved this one but got something else planned for the week

This is a wonderful opportunity but physically also demanding. The thin air takes some power. Done it in group of 5 vehicles and going gets slow and very tough at times. Enjoy!

Good day all,

The time to finalize our Baboons arrangements is running out fast.

Manny seems to have withdrawn, so we are down to five drivers.

Evening all,
I need to start the final invite list , we need all interested to confirm.

6 is a good count and really should be our final list.
so far confirmed:

1) Martindj
2) Panda
3) Grips
4) Bugger
5) Mr LX

The Friday night accommodation at Ramabanta Lodge, have been paid and confirmed.
We have booked 9 rooms 12 people, in total, a deposit of R1950.00 paid to date.
the remainder payable on arrival.
To be fair to everyone going , each person will contribute to an equal share of the accommodation cost.
So depending on how many people are going, each one of us should not pay more than R780.00 each.

Filling the sixth spot will make it less, and if passenger goes with, we can accommodate them, however the team or the passenger needs to pay his share.

For eventuality we need to prepare for the Saturday on the mountain, in case we have a breakdown, or in case the weather turns on us.
Should all go to plan, we will sleep in tents at Semonkeng, its difficult firming a booking (in case we get stuck),
Once we firm the final attendance list, final arrangements can be made.

so guys time to commit.
NB , 2017, this time Halfway Toyota completed the same pass, in standard Toyotas and a Jeep Wrangler without any hassle.

read about it in the Go Drive & Gear March 2018. They did it in less than seven hours, it can be done!!

keep up the spirit,

Martin. Pack EVERYTHING away for the night that you will inevitably sleep on the trail. We were robbed of gasbottles, food etc.
