PICTORIAL
THIS PAGE Grade 10 boys
learn to abseil and rock-climb
in the Wolfberg Cracks on the
2025 Bishops Epic. OPPOSITE
BOTTOM Past pupil and staff
member, and now executive
director of the ODU, Andy
Wood (1977G) has a deep
connection to both Bishops
and the Cederberg. Here he
climbs at Truitjieskraal near
Kromrivier. See more from
Andy on page 113. OPPOSITE
TOP The Stephen Watson
(1971S) quote is from his 3 May
1996 entry in A Writer’s Diary,
much of which was written at
Kromrivier. Stephen, who died
far too early, in 2011, was one
of South Africa’s finest poets.
There is an excellent chapter
on him and the Cederberg, his
favourite subject, in the 2023
book Place by Justin Fox.
