We didn't really have any trouble with navigation at all, it all kind of just fell into place nicely! We had a really good system going on tho, Simon with the description and the main decision making, then me with the maps and telling Simon when he's wrong :PTo be fair, Simon led this trip really well. And I'm very proud of us all for doing it and not getting lost! It was very tiring!
Didn't need any ropes like the silly man at the top said we would. But what we did need was a clue about where the hell Wretched Rabbit surfaced!! Walking over hills and clambering over dry stone walls and crawling under barbed wire in the middle of the night after everyone's knackered from caving is not the best way to end such a good trip. But we made it. And we had a scary encounter with the fast moving, light beam summoning fire ball of death. I think we need to improve our SAS skills!
(But for the record, I was right all along ;) hehe)
6 hours wasn't the record time, but I'm happy with it.
