I see that 2 guys were rescued from the man shaft last Tuesday:
https://cro.org.uk/incident-38-2021-june-23rd-wed-gaping-gill-clapham-north-yorkshire-cave-incident/
Not much detail in the report. I assume that when reaching the upper reaches of the shaft they found the conditions too green and slimy.
Was abbing back down not an option or are there long traverses involved?
I am not criticising them in any way, I assume they were experienced. Just curious.
