Did the original a few weeks back and found the route relatively dry. First pitch was really wet but no problems finding gear. All other pitches of the original were dry apart from the odd bit of snow in some shady areas. Top pitches of direct would be super wet and dirty at the moment.
The Falls are pumping so the river crossing would be challenging at the moment. Not sure if possible. Rap for sure
I have some cam hooks if you need to borrow the as well. Live at the base of the mountain in Porepunkah.
The weather is going to be very wet early next week. Could be worth waiting for a better weather window
