Hairpin bends wind over the mountainside on the Sani Pass connecting South Africa and Lesotho. In this black-and-white photo, the road stands out sharply against the dark mountains all around. A lone 4x4, a bakkie, drives down at a walking pace while on the uphill bend another car takes a break on the way up. This gravel road is a challenge for any 4wd driver. The Sani Pass leads over mountains more than 3,000 metres high, above the tree line. In the picture, only rocks, low bushes and grass adorn the mountainside. This mountain pass is in the Drakensberg or Drakensberg Mountains, the mountain range called the Maloti Mountains in Lesotho.
