Hi everyone
I have received a number of reports of a substantial collapse on the roped traverse ledge around the top of Mud Hall, connecting the Gaping Gill side to the Whitsun Series side. Details are a little sketchy at the moment as to the severity of the collapse (some reports saying it is no longer passable) and the exact location. More details will be posted on the CNCC website newspage as they are received. All groups and individuals with upcoming permits for Gaping Gill entrances have been informed by the Permit Secretary.
For now we advise on avoiding the area or taking substantial additional precautions until the details are clarified.
