| Lions Head.... my evening outing was to climb to the top! |
A view from where I parked on Signal Hill Drive to start the hike. |
Half way up - a lovely shot of a paraglider. |

|
| Freedom in the clouds |
The trail on the side facing the sea. |
Coming around the point, looking over the Lions Rump (or Signal Hill) and Sea Point area of Cape Town. |
|
|
|
| The other side nearer to Table Mountain and the city center of Cape Town. |
City center of Cape Town in background as we stopped for a camera shot. |
Looking out over the edge. Trail got tight here (well, I'm a rookie). I put the camera away. ( : |

|
| At the top, a group shot, hugging the traditional post one must touch after making it to the top. |
The view North toward Robben Island over Sea Point area of Cape Town. |
The more southerly view down past Camps Bay beach. |

|
|
| Floating in the mist |
Heavier mist made it feel like an eclipse. |
An eerie sunset start with the clouds sitting on us. |
|
|
|
| Sky ghosts (can you see it in the background?) from the sun reflecting into the clouds behind us. |
My patient hiking buddies who helped me up the chains. We had a little picnic at the top! |
Sky ghosts still with us |
|
|
|
| Clouds over the 12 Apostles. It was fantastic watching them blow in & over. |
Path to the top or "heaven's gate" as a fellow climber called it to inspire me as I clambered up it. |
Sunset from Lions Head |

|
|
| Just a nice shot down the coast line before we left. |
Clouds & mist over Table Mountain |
1/4 way down looking back on where I just came from. |
|
|
| City center of Cape Town from about 1/2 way down. |
