(Alum Pot)
Hazards and Warnings
Diccan Pot is an extremely active pothole. The water level responds extremely quickly to rain and the ropes on the pitches (particularly the first pitch) hang very close to the waterfalls. The first pitch can become extremely hazardous. At least two days of dry conditions and settled weather during the trip are essential.
