During the lockdown I have been reminiscing about caving trips etc. Apart from discovery which can get into a completely different league, I have been considering the best moment I have had in British caving. It?s hard to nail it down to one moment but mine is:
Otter Hole. I was well aware that the hall of 30 was going to be good. It wasn?t an anti climax at all and the tide blocking us in added to it. But the magic moment for me was the gour passage beyond rising up to a crystal pool. It just got better and better. I didn?t know about this passage so it was all a surprise.
A close 2nd was the traverse of the gods in nick pot. Looking down to the specs of light of my fellow cavers far below me.
Two completely different moments showing the diversity of caving
