Waterfall Stack (ND 336 414)
Approach the stack by descending easily just to the east of a sea cove waterfall. At low tide the wee zawn can be by traversed to the south or a 3m swim solves the problem. Climb the West face close to the arête to a ledge after 15m. Climb the left end of the wall above, finishing on the arête. Rock less than perfect. The summit was made of loose blocks with no belay or abseil anchors, so descent was made by down climbing the East Face (Moderate). There were signs of previous visitors on the descent in the form of a tissue paper. The Stack has two summits and the slightly lower looks like it can be reached more easily by taking the descent scramble up and left.
