Corner Pass in the Injasuthi area of the Drakensberg. This very rocky pass has some risky, non-beginner scrambles in it.
As I was negotiating the last of the scrambles (also the crux of the pass) a rock was dislodged above me. I tried to duck as deep as possible into the rock section I was on, but I heard it whoosh past my head. It bounced on top of my backpack, which I was wearing at the time, and then continued further down the pass.

Sometimes I wonder when I’ve been closest to death.
Was it when I had Covid in February 2020?
Was it when I had surgery that lasted ten hours?
Was it when my spouse pulled me out of the ocean before the undertow of a wave took me?
Was it when I had a stalker?
Was it when I was in a car during a dangerous storm?Or was it more impersonal, like unknowingly sharing the road with a drunk driver, being on a plane with mechanical issues, or in school w/a student who brought a gun?
