Dripline

A fine example of the meaning of the term "dripline". Here I (Dave) am standing in the gear-stashing alcove and washing my hands in the stream of water running down the entrance slope. This is only present if it is raining heavily, and loses itself immediately in the boulders; it is almost certainly not associated with the other streams in the cave (at Cascade Chamber and in Pie Series), but it could correspond to the immature vadose canyon at the far end of Underhand Passage.
