Trips & Events Diary
The wonderful YUCPC movie night returns where we'll be watching some of our fave 'caving' movies...
A weekend at Bullpot Farm where we'll be revisiting the infamous Easegill, allowing people to visit other areas they haven't been to before and hopefully doing some of the more technical routes such as Cow Pot!
The return of the Quiz night - packed full of ... amazing prizes. Location D/N/056
A visit to Nenthead in Cumbria that will provide our first opportunity of the year to visit another type of underground setting... mines! There are many miles of underground passageways where instead of natural wonders it is possible to see abandoned mining machinery and other relics. There's also a 100m deep shaft which there will be the opportunity to abseil down, so start practicing on the long prusik at training! Exploring mines provides its own unique challenges which are very different from standard caving, so this weekend is a wonderful opportunity.
N.B. Mines have unique dangers and require a level of caution, respect, and ability, and so places on this trip will be allocated on a basis of ability - speak to a committee member at training if you would like to come.
Our Annual General Meeting, where we decide and vote on the committee members for the next year. Turn up and vote for who you want to see on your committee - or for the free booze.
We plan to make a glorious return to CHECC this year - stay tuned for details.
Our annual formal, where for once we're not dressed as cavers and instead enjoy an exquisite meal in our finery!
Venue TBC.
A highlight of the YUCPC year. We'll be heading down to South Wales where we will be staying at the SWCC bunkhouse. We'll be down south for a total of 9 days. The caving in wales is slightly different to the caving up in the Yorkshire Dales, as it is mostly horizontal and SRT is mostly not required.
