Question as above. For my approach shoes mainly

Hi all, I'm hoping to collate a list of expeditions led by student caving clubs for Descent. Specifically expeds that are happening this summer. I know CUCC expo is happening, not sure if Imperial slovenia is going ahead, and if SUSS have one happening again? If anyone knows any info on this...

What size bag do I need to take caving kit (including SRT kit) on a plane? Can I fit it all into a 22kg bag? Excluding tackle sack and rope etc - so personal kit only. Oversuit, undersuit (I suppose I could wear that), etches, SRT kit, helmet, wetsocks, gloves, etc sort of thing. I've never...

discuss.

The email for Weathercote access isn't working. Any help?

On an outdoor first aid course this week and it's got me thinking a lot about first aid kits. Ingredients, size, where I bring them etc. I'm interested in what YOU keep in your: 1) Underground first aid kit 2) Above ground (mountain) first aid kit For example I can carry more in the hills than...

Does anyone know much about caving in Georgia, EXCLUDING the occupied territories? I note that there are several show caves and canyons in Georgia (excluding occupied territories) so would guess there is sport caving to be done there too. Does anyone know what the national caving org is called...

Does anyone have any knowledge on caving in Montenegro? Please share all your wisdom

Moderator note: posts split from original thread: https://ukcaving.com/board/index.php?threads/incident-04-2024-10-02-24-23-50-easegill.31561/ I would like to highlight that the initial call out was left for 2230, and the police were called VERY shortly afterwards (by 2235). The police clearly...

Looking for someone to bring some lights up from Sheffield to the Dales before March. I can't drive so it's a nightmare for me to try and get down to Sheffield without it taking multiple days. The lights are fairly small so won't take up much space (ie. they fit in a shopping bag). Please...

Hi all, Wondering if anyone has advice for good rain boots or wellies. Walking boots are rubbish for when I want to easily slip some shoes on to go to the shop, and have to walk through a shin-deep lake to get there. Since I live in the Dales full time now and the rain never seems to stop, I...

The other day I was forced to descend Boggarts Roaring due to the high water levels ruling most caves out. I was strongly warned against this, over 5 cavers told me tales of how horrible it was. I'd previously been told that it was the worst cave in NFTFH, and I was reminded that it is all...

TL;DR: *MISSING DINOSAUR IN PENYGHENT, HELP NEEDED FROM ALL VISITED CAVERS AND DIVERS* Attached photo for reference. It is with great sadness that I announce that Nessie, beloved dinosaur of Fruity Meltdown and later the Kresh, has been officially confirmed as MISSING. A rescue mission down...

Anyone heading from Kendal to Ingleton today? I am a bit stranded oops

Heading to Tenerife in January for 8 days - I've seen they have some pretty cool lava tubes but not sure how to gain access. Has anyone been caving in Tenerife before? Or does anyone know the best caving club to contact and ask for a tour (we would obviously return the favour if they wanted to...

The ropes in Gingling are very worn and some core shot at the top. If anyone knows the person that owns these ropes please let them know so that they can be removed, as they are cluttering up the bolts and, as they are no longer usable, if left will effectively be litter in the cave.

Hi! Would anyone anyone willing to caver post myself in their vehicle from Hidden Earth back up North? I live Ingleton way so would be looking to get as close to that as possible but anywhere nearby / where I can get a short train from (like Kendal, Lancaster, Skipton, Leeds, etc) could also...
