Beware of rockfall on this cliff - if there are teams ahead it could be a problem. Saying that, we dislodged this one when pulling the ropes on an abseil - a direct hit.

Wow, that's a big chunk of rock. Your helmet certainly did a good job of protecting your head. Glad you are OK.

Thanks Bill, it only came from 20m above and it was enough for a light concussion. I think that was about the limit, any higher up or any larger and I would not have been smiling.
