Rescue Alert: On the 17th of December 2013, at 8pm, the Mountain Club received a call via the Provincial Health Operations Centre regarding 3 adult hikers lost in the area of Gxalingenwa Cave. After talking directly with the leader of the party, it was established that they could not find the cave, and had no tent and the weather was very bad. The case was handed over to Sani Search Volunteers who went out that night and found the subjects. They were walked out in the early morning.
