 This is the halfway1 point of my walk today. It's been three hours since I started it out, some ideal spot for rest. I'm finally in the upper Berg.-So this is where people do in origins.

-Yes.
-Now I wish it's today though.
I've come to realize this isn't just walk up one mountain. There are lots of intriguingly2 named peaks and mini features along the way.
 
-Julia, that area. That you look over there. It's called Munuali.
-Munuali.
-It means Zulu. It means finger.
-That's the finger range.
-Yes.
These simple but literal3 names sound up nicely. Ahead of me, I can make up the peaks of three puddings, another abrupt4 name. Can't quite decide but they are less badges5 or dumplings. Which langage for use for these mountain names also seems to be the cause of some debate. Cathedral Peak is no different. In Zulu, it's zikalishone, named after the son of a fierce chief, who came here to escape an assassionation plot. There are now calls to get rid of the English names and use the traditional titles instead.
As my walk climbs higher, a different issue begins to emerge6. There might be blue skies, but there are also t* sized changing conditions. When Zee makes one of our egular weather checks, we begin to realize those signs are right and high up from us the weather is beginning to change.
-Zee's just had the news there are more storms on the way. We're two-and-half hours' away from Cathedral Peak from this point, so we can get there, but we wouldn't make it back. We would be caught in more frightening lightning, which is not an option, so the agonizing7 madding decision is we have to turn around and go back down again.
