Description

(Precise location uncertain due to obscured satellite view.) At somewhere near a mile into the run (+/-) you encounter the serious gradient. At least parts of this are definite class V territory. Needless to say, time to get out and scout. We'll forego any description, since (at this level) it is up to you to assess what is there and whether you and your team are up to running part or all of this.

Description and photos are available at: Go Waterfalling.
