Valley of the Trolls Rock bivvy
Rock bivvy fromed by an overhanging cliff. Probably enough room for about a dozen people but the northern end is very exposed to northerly down valley winds. Some drippage off the cliff also doesn't make part of the bivvy suitable either. There's enough room to pitch a couple of tents.
Location on the map is approximate, sorry. Its west of the lakes on the valley floor but not obvious when down there looking up.
