Down the Nave, up to Top Waterfall, returned up Maypole inlet. Enjoyable, splashy trip in the streamway. The waterfall had a hell of a lot of force behind it, thanks to the heavy rain at the weekend. There was a ladder visible behind the water, leading to the top. We decided not to investigate as there appeared to be a reasonably high chance of drowning. Wayne was a very helpful leader, falling neck deep into all the pots so that... read more

Photo trip mainly. Me and Matt went for a jolly over some spicy traverses, exploring weird bits on the survey that noone goes to, around and above Bhowani junction and the top of Chasm Passage.
