A small part of Table Mountain

Cape Town and Table Mountain needs your vote to name this iconic geological feature as one of the “SEVEN NATURAL WONDERS OF THE WORLD”

I have Worked on (as botanist), Hiked (a few of the many amazing trails), Swam (in one of Silvermine’s dam), Studied (as a UCT student), Leisured (jogging and picnics), Photographed (plants and animals) Cycled around (as part of the  Argus Cycle Tour), Driven up (when I managed to get a permit) and Sailed around (by sail I mean power boat…and as a crew from Hout Bay to Table Bay – once). During one botanical survey I spent a two months walking, counting and resampling the amazing vegetation on the mountain.

For these and many more reasons Table Mountain “the sleeping giant” deserves your vote (more information here).
