Pillar Holes loose rocks

Just a warning that the area above the final pitch on route 3 is very loose with a lot of poised rocks ready to go down the pitch. We were in there today and had three fairly significant falls. We were aware of the potential, so were treading very carefully, but it still happened. On one of the falls the person de rigging at the pitch head was taken with a big block down the pitch, but was safely clipped in above, so no harm done. despite the ammount that went down while we were in there is still fair bit of very loose stuff in that area, which probably needs to be dispatched in a controlled manner. Take care if your in there.
