The Gripper Drain 25th June 2008

The Gripper is a plesant mini drain to explore, I left my waders in the car as it had sides to it. Unfortunately there’s a good reason it was coined the gripper and I ended up turning a corner and getting my shoes and feet wet as the water (over 2 feet deep and flowing at roughly 3 feet per second) rushes over the edge and onto the walkway, at this point the walkway was getting very deep so shoes and cameras were left close to the entrance and continued barefoot!
