Kids Mont-Aux-Sources weekend

I've been wanting to take my kids (age 10 and 12) to spend a night on the top of Mont-aux-sources for some time now, but have always been hesitant to go on my own with them, given the security risks. I'm interested to know if anyone feels the same and who would be keen to join in an informal sleepover so that we have security in numbers (and some of the Dad's can even take turns keeping watch if neccessary). Each family would still need to get to the top and have all their own gear and food etc...but we could agree on a time and place to meet before it gets dark. (eg Meet at the top of the chain ladders at 14h00 on Sat). I'm thinking late October. Good idea? Bad idea?

Ian, ha ha, you guys are big kids but having you there would be brilliant!

If anyone is coming from the PMB side, I'd be keen to join and split the petrol/tolls cost (although I also don't have kids). I don't plan on driving that far in my car (my car shakes at 100km/h and only gets 7km to the litre). I may have some friends who might be up for it (but none of them have cars suitable for the drive either).

Which weekend are you guys looking at? 2 of my October weekends are already booked, 1 provisionally being my second attempt at Bollard Willson loop (probably 8-9 October) and on 22 October the wargames team I coach will be trying to avenge their recent 17-16 loss at an interschool, so that should be good...

I would be keen on a mount-aux-sources trip and would be coming from PMB side
My car is old but does 16km to the litre.

I have no kids but am always keen to go for a hike. Will see closer to the time if finances let me.

Ok, my weekend of 29 October is now also booked (ironically I'm taking my former boss and his 14 year old son up Rhino).

@Splatcat: Cool, are you looking at driving to Witsieshoek or RNNP? I might have 3 other people who may be interested in joining, so if we split the petrol and tolls 5 ways, it shouldn't be too costly.

Ok, I'm able to do the weekend of 22/23 October. So far 4 adults have shown an interest, which is great, but surely there are some more parents (with families), who would like to join in for the weekend?

If diverian, ghaznavid, splatacat an intrepid can make it that would be great. I'm keen for it to be an opportunity for the youngsters though...

I'm not able to do 22/23 Oct, the school wargames team I coach will be trying to defeat another school wargames team on 22 Oct.
