thanks very much for the info
just to clarify - are you saying it's better to descend the comet ramp in the 2 stages described in the previous post rather than one long abseil from the point (due to rope retrieval issues)?
also, at the bottom of the last abseil, is that the base of Ozymandias?.- from where you walk downstream 100m to look for the track out?
once you find the start of track out, is it obvious from then on - i.e well used? and does this track ascend the south wall of the Gorge?
