Routing
Jan 09, 2004, 11:21
Routing meaning To bellow. Used of cattle, comes from Middle English routen, to roar, from Old Norse rauta.

So that could well be where it comes from.

I reckon, in my simplified way, it might just mean a noisy waterfall then. A Roaring Waterfall.

Presumably there was more of it in the past if that's the case, because it's normally pretty peaceful now.
