Does anybody know of any artificial caves available to hire? Reasonably large ones... Excluding BCA and DCA ones. I have tried cave bus and odin but they are both booked when I want them. It's for a big scouting event. Thanks!

I was in Bagshawe cavern the other day and noticed the chain on the climb down to the full moon series is looking rather worn on some of the links. I wouldn't want to rely on this if I slipped! Do others generally climb while using the chain as an aid or would you put a handline down if needed?
