Me sitting on top the falls, after the tunnel, anchored to a tree.

Goat en route, just below the chimney/corner system of Pitch 6.
I revised the topo slightly from the one floating around online in other spots.

Photo topo - Ramey 2011<br> Belay 3 is approximate since there are multiple stations, 3a and 4a are omitted for clarity. From station 2, just simul to 4a or 4 or scramble to the end of the rope and find the closest station as there are several to choose from.

If you do Pitch 12 above the tunnel, one rappel option is to do a single-rope rap off of this tree back down to the tunnel and reverse the tunnel. With two ropes, there might be another rap anchor to the left that allows you to rap to the belay anchor on the left side of the tunnel and hence bypass having to reverse the tunnel.
Pitch 9 climbs through a band of shale. There is not pro on this pitch, but it is fairly easy.
Pitch 8.
"Pitch" 3 and "Pitch" 4 are essentially a hike along an exposed trail.
Awesome position of belay spot at top of Pitch 7 (photo taken on rappel). This is a much better viewpoint of the falls than the tourist trail viewpoint below.
After the climb, all smiles
Pitch 1. In this photo, Rob is at the first bolt on the route.
