UPDATE - Table Mountain

If you haven't already, check out my post below about my climb of Table Mountain when i first arrived in SA. Then check out this snippet from today's Cape Times newspaper:

Flashing Camera Saves Japanese Tourists Stranded on Freezing Table Mountain

Two Japanese tourists had to be rescued off the front face of the mountain by EMS and Wilderness Search & Rescure last night. Apparently they missed the last cable car down the mountain and become lost trying to find their way back down the mountain. They were found by rescuers after using their camera flash to attract attention but had already began experiencing symptoms of hypothermia. Had they not been found that may have frozen to death on the mountain.

So yea.. guess it was a GOOD idea to take the last cable car down since i didn't have my flashlight!
