[MCR] Rockfall Event - North Face of Edith Cavell

There was a large rockfall event on the North face of Edith Cavell on Tuesday 1st September 2015.
The rockfall was just right of the North Face, East summit route. Looks like an entire pillar of rock fell off with dust from the event reaching the parking lot.
No one was involved or injured in the rock slide.
Cavell is looking pretty wintry with wet snow falling at the tarn yesterday.
Cheers,
Steve Blagbrough.
