Rock: Rock can be loose

There have been a couple of serious accidents in recent years at Ndeiya, both involving loose rock. Please bear in mind while climbing that rock might break or come off, and rescues from Ndeiya can be difficult and lengthy. If it is your first time, climb within your limits and even on very easy ground use protection when available.
