Looks like a hell of a lot of fun, just for clarity if the group gets through the pass in 1 day they would head back home on the 28th?

Hi Rem

I have provisionally booked Semonkong Lodge for 27 and 28 April.
https://www.semonkonglodge.com/accommod ... n-lesotho/
If we finish in one day, we will stay there on 27 April, and leave for home on 28th.
If we are delayed and drive over two days, then we stay there on 28th, and leave home for 29th.

This trip is about to become Epic if it continues to snow.
But we shall see how it looks next week as snow is currently falling in parts of Lesotho.
