Virgin America is offering domestic sale fares starting at $39 one-way or $78 round-trip. The offer includes flights to Las Vegas, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle.

Virgin America’s short-haul fares were better deals than its long-haul fares. Its prices for the four short-haul routes I checked were among the best available, though Frontier, United, and US Airways offered similar prices. Frontier and US Airways beat Virgin America’s New York/San Francisco fare, while Northwest and US Airways offered lower prices for travel between Washington, D.C. and Los Angeles. You might consider booking with Virgin America if you’re flying on a short-haul route, but be sure to compare fares before booking.

As with the Royal Natal National Park, the area of Cathedral Peak is dominated by the Drakensberg escarpment, and similarly offers the two distinct walking zones of hill country above, and ridges and gullies below. Cathedral Peak is also the first realistic point of descent from the escarpment after Mont aux Sources, for although there are some 6 or 7 passes that leak off the face in between, none will deposit you anywhere near a hotel or KNZ Wildlife facility. Thanks also to the fact that the Cathedral Peak Reserve and its surrounds are well serviced by accommodation options and other general facilities it is one of the most popular hiking destinations in the Berg. However, although there are a variety of easy and pleasant trail options available to service the regular flow of day trippers, there are also some very cheeky and little used byways that might take you by surprise, and will severely challenge your leg muscles while leading you into some of the most majestic and beautiful scenery in the entire range.
