hello, my names rob, my friend and i are keen walkers and a few months ago we stumbled upon the entrance to dow cave, we ventured in as far as our walking gear would let us (which wasn't far) and then came back and agreed we'd have to return with some more appropriate gear, well Lidl are doing a nice range of angling gear at the moment,in amongst which are some waiders for a fiver! so we're a tenner poorer but looking forward to this weekend, so what do we need to know? how is it best to go about it, i have no desire to get hideously lost or to do anything stupid but we do want a bit of an adventure.
how far can you go before you have to start properly "caving" (neither of us are put off by a bit of scrambling).
from the maps i've seen the dow cave-Providence Pot route is a "T" rotated 90 deg left, i have no intention of attempting the Providence Pot section but can you carry straight on from dow cave past hobsons choice and emerge at the other end?
thanks in advance.

PS. what's a boulder choke?
