    I was born and raised in Rochdale and had no idea this was happening on our doorstep. When you consider how much water is held in those peat moors the amount shown in the waterfall must be tremendous. Almost makes you want to take a walk up there on a rainy day.

      Hello Phillip, It's amazing how quickly a small stream can become a raging torrent from these local hills in this area

      Yes, l am always amazed at the number of waterfalls on the hillside above Cray in Wharfedale. Given the height they are at.. where the heck does all that water come from, even after a period of no rainfall.?

    hey daz, its great to get another perspective of how the water flows during flood. i done the same last Monday @ tyndrum and I never expected what I saw. some raw power right there mate. remember and give me a shout next time your coming up here 👍

      Tell me more about Tyndrum. When I visited there earlier in the year I got a real sense of what could happen there when it gets angry.

      @@MrDazP1adv3ntures well buddy I got a sense that mother nature is beautiful but can also be ruthless. i figured if I want to understand the hobby I needed to look at it in flood. the area I'm prospecting just now was very much the same high chocolate brown water, fast powerful current flowing and I even seen a good bit of banking getting washed from the far bank. I've even had a trip where I've been working the sluice and just finished some buckets, go to get more material and when I come back my sluice has water nearly flowing clean over it. shows you the beauty and power of our great landscapes and how much they can change quickly also not to F@#K with mother nature. always stay safe. if it looks stupid, it probably is lol

      @@garrycunningham1445 Cheers Gary. I have been amazed after looking at how high river levels have been following big rain events and can't believe how debris can end up 40ft up in the trees above the waterline. Some good prospecting detective work too there by reading the angry water first. When I was in Tyndrum the boulder field near the railway bridge looked like a spot that must get chaotic in flood. Thanks for the reply buddy.

      @@MrDazP1adv3ntures definitely mate, the burns and rivers have a good and bad side. good to get a look at what I'm working with in all aspects. sure does and the size of the boulders are mega and to think of them breaking free and rolling down that hill is another thought. I've now took up the sniping side of the hobby and your videos with many more have me hungry to find it under the water. still learning but that's what it's about having fun along the way. i will find my source one day buddy 😊

      The jacket is light and packs away in a drinking bottle so it's out of sight or stuffs well in your back pockets. It's cheaper than named brands and does the job.

      I have tried this stream lower down but the geology isn't on my side this part of the Pennines. It's all grit stone which is a relatively young rock group. The only other possibility could be from glacial movement.

      I am not sure how things went on over night . Even higher up places can flood locally when footpaths become rivers as the water runs off the hills.
