Katherine's next 4x4 experience was in the Matroosberg to see some snow.

The first time Pepper went to see the snow it was sunny and fluffy and warm. Next time it was windy and wet and cold, which made it more fun for Pepper, but less fun for those stuck in the back under a leaky canvas canopy. Up the mountain we went, over and through and in the mud we fell until eventually we got stuck. In a blizzard with 70km/h winds, sleet and cold cold cold. Pepper's dad jacked her up while the remaining members of the party either decided to lie down and concede defeat or fetch rocks. Those that fetched rocks got cold and wet. Those that hid and cried and moaned also got cold and wet. But eventually after much cajoling Pepper decided that it was time to go and hopped out of her little hole. And not five minutes later another Landy appeared out of the gloom. If only we had sat and waited they could have towed us out...
So those are Katherine's two 4x4 experiences. They aren't all as hard core, but she chose the best two to come along on.
