~Ouch, pretty sore the next day. Cracking trip. Rigging the first pitch involved being wedged in a constricted rift and reaching to thread a fig 8 single handedly. Plenty of awkward moments. Return journey was far tougher than way in. I'm gonna stick my neck out and say that the first pitch head is the most difficult and awkward I've ever experienced. This cave certainly deservers a place in my top 10 most hardcore trips. Serious error->BHP is listed in Selected caves as grade IV. This trip is far tougher than Black shiver or King pot.
