[Gaz seconding first pitch, 1 kb]Three pitches. This one usually has fat ice that leads from the gorge up to the road. Due to slabby character this waterfall disappears in snowy conditions. There are many possible variations. Descend by walking back down the road © ROCKFAX

Last route of the trip, scrambled first 30m the 3 pitches to the top, quite sketchy in places, i received a nicely bruised hand after a big lump of ice fell on it. Good fun though and a good way to end the trip!

Not much ice as the sun was strong. Quite cruddy and not worth the 3 stars in that condition.
Skinny Kin - Lead O/S - 27/Mar/08 with John Flitcroft

In 3 pitches, 55m, 50m, 45m. C led pitches 1 and 3. First pitch very wet, the rest good quality ice. Steady drizzle all the way up. A good route, low in the grade, a bit like a WI version of scrambling!
