Kinder Downfall - Waterfall.

[richpips]

We went for a family walk today in somewhat changeable weather.

Not enough water to make a really spectacular shot. But here you go anyway.

It would have been nice to get some people in shot on the plateau to give scale, but it was windy today, and no doubt the wise stayed away from the edge.

Ah yes, Kinder downfall. I climbed down that in brogues a few years ago, and received a filthy look from a 'serious' climber dressed in all the gear. almost as though I was letting the side down...

It can have a lots of water. Though it drains very quickly. I noticed as we walked back down the river, the water level had been nearly 3ft higher earlier in the day. The first sun of the day coincided with my shots.

I can see me spending a lot of time going up there during a stair rods downpour, waiting for the forecast sunshine after the storm.
