Article about Three Counties traverse

My article about last weekend?s epic Three Counties traverse is now online and will be in tomorrow?s Daily Mail. Photos by Mark Burkey and Bartek Biela.

David thanks for sharing the link. for me was a good report, enough embellishment with fact for the general public. 

Somehow, David, your newsworthy article seems to have been replaced already on the mail website with a non-story about a YouTuber going down Daren. 

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10037615/Terrifying-moment-claustrophobic-daredevil-squeeze-INCHES-WIDE-gap-called-Vice.html?adobe_mc=TS%3D1632862240%7CMCAID%3D2F4B82B785159652-6000072989D6D517

Anyone recognise where he's talking about (on the through trip from cnwc):
"...the  first narrow gap known as 'The Armageddon' - which is 16 inches wide.

They continue to delve deeper into the cave system before pushing into a tighter 12-inch tunnel known as 'The Death Squeeze'.

...He eventually manages to free himself before the pair arrive at their next challenge - a nine-inch tunnel nicknamed 'The Narrow Slump'."

Before arriving at " 'one of the most claustrophobic squeezes in the world' - a gap know as 'The Vice' which narrows to just four inches wide." [My highlight] 

(His previous experience was in a sensory deprivation box - I feel he should have stayed there)

But then, is the three counties traverse really "the longest journey in underground UK"?

I rather liked Caver Keith's Daren video, starring Chunky:

Yes, if you have the link, or run a search. My comment was really that your article seemed to have been bumped off the home page by some drivel about a YouTuber getting scared down Daren, but that's been bumped off the home page too now. I guess that's the nature of the industry, chuck up a story on the home page and replace with something else within less than 24 hours.

Yuo, that's what happens!

The YouTube video did only go online yesterday, so is current

I have just clicked on David?s original link and the article is there but now with far more photos. (I even appear in 2  )

Nice article by the way
