I have several litter grabbers that I could lend you for something like this. Help get to those more awkward spots.

Langcliffe just re reading this thread. You were doing annual litter picks in bar. It’s I that should be saying well done and thank you to Not other way round. Hopefully it might inspire someone else to take it one or consider bringing out some rubbish.

Langcliffe pulled this out today from that ledge. I’m now not sure this was the item it seemed further behind a block than I remember and I didn’t spot it til the way out but I have left it on Graham’s doorstep for you.

There is tonnes on loose rock on the large ledge part way, now, down llean bean aven and the gulley that leads to the eastern front. These were never cleared for heavy traffic. There are also fine mud formations at the bottom of the aven that will quickly be trashed without care. Oh and well done.

Thank you I have seen this. Also thank you Chris and Webby I have received both emails and it is on my to do list. This extra day in February means I have been busy.

Adep I have your details, I will be in touch but need to take some measurements first...

John any of your club mates able to construct such a thing as a SS ladder? I could go to peak and pinch theirs but it might not be long enough!

Thanks John. I guess a further question is should they now be removed/replaced? You have to have an srt kit for the pitch after the blow hole so you have it with you anyway. Obviously a rope and anchors would need installing.

Yes.

There are now two ladders of both likely to be older than me that enable access to the blowhole and the passages beyond. I was wondering which entrance they had been take in through.

I dare you to seek a peek behind the curtain!

Came out of great douk cave looked down the pot seems there has been a bit of a collapse. Ladders with boulders on anyway. Take care.

Pitlamp take if you take a few tools, screw drivers and small adjustable spanner with some stout string and you should be able to do a quick fix.

The wire that stops the large pin being lost has rusted through. Currently the pin is attached by the split pin but it could be easily dropped. Anyone able to attached in a more permanent way in the near future would be great.

No worries. Just keep moving.
