Day 12 - Grootdam and beyond

No news from John and Albert as they lose cellphone reception again. Today they traveled south to Grootdam, 74km down the road. Struggling to update, it is difficult to tell from the GPS Tracking Device's location if they skipped Support Station 12 and continued another 86km to van de Venterskraal, The team needs to start doubling up on the planned days if they want to complete the trail in the targeted 21 days.

Profile to van de Venterskraal shows only 900km climb, however, the cold front and strong headwinds, similar to those faced in the last couple of day could slow them down.
