Derbyshire Explorers Forum 2023 - Sat 30th September - It's On!
The event is now being held at the Mechanics Institute in the centre of Eyam (opposite the church), still on Saturday 30th September, with doors opening at 15:00. Best bit is that there is a bar on site.
Entry is free and there will be evening meal also. More details to follow...
JAA I have a new unsold copy of the book - photo cover. PM me if you would like it, free but a donation to your local CRO if you wish. Could be posted at cost or collected/caver post from the Dales.

On a trip through Simpson's today a new(ish) rope was found "hung up" on Storm Pot. This appeared abandoned due to a failed pull down.
PM me if it is yours as we took it out.

I have around 60 Descents and the same number of Caves and Caving available to a good home FREE. Before I recycle them!
All in good condition with some duplicates. All from the 80's, 90's and early noughties. Want to clear as a job lot, can be collected from the Dales or caver post arranged...
Just noticed that Braida Garth is up for sale, this includes Keld Head, Yordas and all the major caves in East Kingsdale. All very important for cave access!

I have been asked to pick a winner ;D
Well obviously my posts were the best, especially the portal into another world from Castleberg Rock, Settle. If you have not clicked the link do - its weird and a little sad. Second would have been Badlad with Inkleton. But I suppose neither of those...
Just been informed that the pasture that contains Joint Hole, Chapmans Rising and Meregill Skit has come on the market. Due to the current official lack of access to all three I thought this may be of interest to those that enjoy aquatic pursuits. ;)...
Very foolishly I lost my right foot older style Pantin down Ireby Fell Cavern today.
Not sure where but quite possibly just a couple of meters downstream from the rope up to the Skylight sump bypass, on the mud bank.
Thanks in advance.

Good news I feel at last regarding the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Secretary of State has finally announced today the extension to include most Dales caving areas including Leck, Casterton, Barbon, Wild Boar Fell etc.

Blatant advert but would anyone like to work at Dalesbridge between Settle and Ingleton this Summer either full or part time (weekends). Would involve all aspects of helping run the busy campsite, bunkhouses, B&B and function rooms including occasional bar. If interested please PM me or email...
I have just obtained two brand new copies of both Northern Caves Volume 2 (Three Peaks 1996) and Volume 3 (Three Counties etc 1994). Before anyone asks no I don't have any Volume 1!
I intend to sell them for good prices with all profit beyond the ?10 each that they cost me going to CRO. I know...
