First descended by Messrs Bramley and Fraser, but they didn’t get around to telling anyone… Toine and Jonno went for a look thinking it was a first descent in June (!) 2024 and were surprised to find evidence of canyoners.. More features than maybe you’d think, but not really worth the effort to descend.
