 The next morning the two corners of my sleeping bag were soaked but none the worse for it. After breaky, we clambered around the side of a tree covered cliff-face to get down and around the waterfall. In actual fact it was a a long slippery dip, 60 ft. long, 60° angle and a boulder at the bottom to stop you, just in case you went too fast. For the next 2 miles the going as slow. Large boulders (house type) and small waterfalls which had to be scrambled around. Very similar to Bungonia block-up except that it was very slippery in the drizzling rain - logs were just not to be trusted. "Will I slip, or won't I?" "Is tht green slippery growth on the rock or is that a green-coloured rock?" Three of the partv took off their sandshoes and claimed a better grip on the rocks. The next morning the two corners of my sleeping bag were soaked but none the worse for it.
