Bolts are all good as Aidan says :) Although there is less floor than there used to be on the first pitch!

Grown up? Is nobody going to question this?

Communicating with student clubs is hard! Instead of chasing down new student caving club committee members email addresses every year the CHECC committee have had the grand idea of using an email subscribe list which you can find here: https://checc.org/ we promise to occasionally send...

I am a student caver

https://screenpal.com/watch/c0lTQPVH33w - May work Hagrid?

Hello! Just a line to say it is NCHECC this weekend, there will be 150 student cavers in the dales - staying at YDG. So popular spots could be quite busy with students.

Nothing to do with Chocolate or Coconut... But I think UKcaving made many of us spend far to long "investigating" a certain meme maker.

Ideally in the Bangor area as we do quite a lot of day trips

Bangor Student Caving Club formed in January 2020. Despite being described by one member as a phoenix that keeps trying to die, the club is doing well and we're currently enjoying the best freshers season yet. We have one issue that over the last nearly 4 years we've not been able to solve...

Usually I have a chocolate bar in my pocket. If i'm feeling fancy I take baby bells, the wax seems to make them cave proof

Written as we (Mealy, Jonty, Emily) made slow progress through endless traffic in Germany on our route back to the UK. Finished at home with working internet. In an attempt not to repeat Honorata’s write up… I’ll briefly summarise week 1: First caving(?) trip was spent digging the entrance for...

Chi and I went to Newby Moss Pot today after some difficulty locating it! However, were stumped at the first pitch after manoeuvring our way through the awkward tight crawl/climbs we arrived at the first pitch and found a spit thread but no spit or other bolt as we were expecting. So are...

I agree it is a pity it does not say petzl or simple, that would amuse me. The Savlon was located!

It was long enough! Long enough to discover hot hurty. Maybe about 30 seconds

On a nice JH to titan trip I thought I had the ultimate solution to caving with period pain. The ready-made heat pad of my descender. However this turned out to be a terrible idea (see photo of the branding). So I will now depart my newly discovered wisdom: simples can get rather hot! The...

Connecting fishface to happy butterfly At the end of week 2 the kresh set out with the plan to connect fishface to happy butterfly. After looking at the surveys we (with much help from Mike) highlighted 4 possible areas in fishface that we thought we could connect from. On Monday morning...

Bscc had a trip there today and we had some issues in the chamber of Horrors, I.e the boat the chamber. We were using the lovely pulley system but as we were pulling the pulley popped out on the other side. Meaning the boat is now only attached on the croesor side. So if you were to approach...

We are hoping we might be able to track down some old members of the club. Mainly because of one quite pressing question. We?ve got the old logo and have been busy colouring it and bringing it into the 21st century. But none of us knows what is in Stig?s right hand? Here is a list of suggestions...

We (Bangor Student Caving Club/BSCC) had a trip to Pandora this afternoon. The trip good, but a bit of a shit show. Consequently we've got some gear left in there and we're hoping to go and retrieve it in the next couple of days so if you're down there please could you leave it where it is! Or...

Bangor student caving club had our first freshers trip last week to Nadolig and Poachers. Whilst in Poachers we had a decent sized rock fall (big piece being about 2x1x1/2ft) on the first handline in the lower series. Fortunately everyone was stood out the way of it when it flew down the...
