A bad sieve, on right of picture, required a portage. Even if the wood was not there this drop would not go as most of the water goes under the huge midstream boulder. Ugh!!

Multiple drops in the heart of the Calder gorge. The Calder is tight, technical and in places very inaccessible. Portaging is sometimes a difficult option and to walk out from certain places would be very difficult. Water level could be a critical factor in here. A dangerous place to be if the river were rising fast. Beware!

Callum runs a good line on Splitter Rock rapid, a rather intimidating slot.

The final drop at the exit of the gorge, marks the end of an epic little adventure on one of Scotland's best wee burns.
