Much faff was involved, particularly because i'd just bought a new safety link and cows tails. Then we got underground and found the route already rigged. 2 pitches down we came across the school party responsible exiting...school party in an SRT cave - what's going on? Much sitting at the top of that pitch before the group behind us went past as they (wrongly) thought they could free climb the next pitch. So we sacked it off and spent further... read more

This is a cave I've wanted to do for ages and never had the chance till today. A great trip in a great and classic Yorkshire cave. It was a lot shorter than I expected but still a great deal of fun.

a wicked trip though was just a tad damp to get anywhere near the main streamway. boo. yet all was not lost as we made a point of seeing every possible formation etc on the way out. lots of exciting free climbs, scrotty crawls and funky pretty stuff ensued -fun for all the family. yet the day was truly enhanced by the eighth wonder of the world: the swcc hut. an amazing place, a true oasis of warmth and happiness... read more

It wasn't that long but it had some 'kin big shafts in it. Using a tackle bag strap as a sling on the last pitch was 'innovative', thanks gove.
