I have loads of caving & cave diving kit for sale on Gumtree so if anyone's interested let me know; am based in Cardiff so hopefully CaverPost can assist.  Will be adding more over the next few days including loads of wetsuits & rusty dive bottles; some of the links are here...

Having a clear out & have stacks of journals available for collection from Cardiff (or you can arrange Caver Post).  I'm asking for a small donation to the Dachstein Caving Expedition as those caves don't find themselves ;-)  Fairly likely to have books & more journals available soon. CDG...

Anyone here used ropes from English Braids over the last couple of years?  Thoughts on how they compare to Beal etc...?  Cheers

The Dachstein Exped needs a couple of huge tackle bags & as we're on a budget we're wondering if anyone has one (or more) that they no longer use?  Ideally something along the lines of a 150 - 200L sack and preferably a proper UK design with two attachment points at the top (i.e, not the rubbish...

PLEASE SUPPORT & ADVERTISE THIS EVENT AS WE PUT A LOT OF EFFORT INTO MAKING IT HAPPEN SO THE MORE THE MERRIER. AND NON-DACHSTEIN'EES ARE WELCOME ;-) A full weekend of caving expedition skills, including basic SRT, advanced SRT, SRT self rescue, hauling & lowering, vertical team rescue, cave...

3 weeks from Aug 17-Sept 7. Deep Alpine cave exploration trip with the main goal of taking the 1.56km deep WUG Pot to more than 1.6km deep which would take us from the 9th deepest in the world & into the top 5. All are welcome regardless of experience as there are many more objectives to suit...

Drama happening in Northern Thailand at the moment... https://edition.cnn.com/2018/06/24/asia/thailand-cave-boys-trapped/index.html

Anyone know who the current go-to dye tracing gurus are in South Wales? I'm out of the loop as to who's who these days & could do with some advice from an expert....

Dates have been set for this year's exploration bonanza to the Dachstein Massif in the Austrian Alps & will cover a one month period from 19th August til 17th September.  This should allow people to attend the European Speleo Event in the Dales & then head over to the proper caves in Europe  ;)...

So the 2015 Exped came to an end after 3 weeks of alternate stunning & grim weather with 30 attendees from the UK, Germany, Austria, Italy and France. WUG Pot was (almost) totally re-rigged (we ran out of new rope a couple of pitches before the big tunnels); Tom Foord & others did a sterling job...
