With the spell of dry weather the waterfall was easy to cross,would be a different story in spate and a lot more spectacular

Nice report glw.. will you ever get some luck with the views? Hopefully that will change for you when you do the South Shield Ridge next week.

We completed the ridge on the Saturday of the Easter weekend,very poor weather we had for near the complete ridge.

Wishing you guys the best of weather. Dave

Nice one Gammy! One of these days I'm going to log on here and see a picture of you at a summit in shorts, t-shirt and sunnies. Until then, keep 'em coming mate! :D
