WaterFall wall rockfall

Postby PeterA » Mon Mar 30, 2009 12:29 pm

There was a large rockfall out at waterfall wall on Saturday. An extremely large chunk of rock just to the left of up rope let go. It has left behind another large section of rock just waiting to come off. Up rope climbs directly through this newly dangerous section. Care should be taken when walking around near the base of waterfall wall, and up rope should definitely be avoided.

Was it the big block the size of a car sitting at the top of the cliff? It was just off to the left side of the finish for Up Rope.
I want to go to hell... there's probably lots of rock to climb there.
