Hello Mendip cavers,
I was hoping I could get some advice.
I've found out that there is a through trip from Bath swallet TO Rods pot. I've been in Rods pot a few times many years ago so I'm keen to have ago at this through trip and would like some stats from you guys, first one to answer gets a pint at the the Hunters on the 12th!
[list type=decimal]
[*]I am right to say you go from Bath to Rods?
[*]Is it one pitch you need to set up at some point in Bath swallet or does one need to pop into Rods as well to set up a pitch out?
[*]From my searching on the internet I'm unsure if there is actually a P-bolt to rig off or does one use naturals?
[*]How big are the pitches, would you use a ladder or SRT (I've got 30m of SRT rope)?
[*]How long does the trip take (with faffing) so I know what sort of call out I need to do?
[*]I remember having trouble locating Rods pot entrance last time, how far is bath swallet from it "as the crow flies", just to stop me wandering around in circles...
[/list]
Thank you for time.
Duncan
