      How to find the site: From the main entrance at the bottom of Mike's Pass go east along the main road to Winterton for approx 3 km's. Leave the main road and continue along the Jeep track until you reach the Field Rangers Outpost. From there take the path up the Nkwazi River Valley for about 3 km's till a tributary is flowing in from the south. Leave the path in a southerly direction and cut through the lower sandstone band and continue for about 150 meters until a flattish piece of ground is reached. The site is a NNE facing overhang at the base of the highest sandstone band.
