As its generally only the "squeezing" that presents significant difficulties - i'd like a more personalised Grading system - Grade 1 - I can get through easily Grade 2 - Can get through if I strip off, with alot of pushing/grunting and some physical pain Grade 3 - I can't get through

A bit too old to have made many Memes so hope this works!

What percentage of cavers do we reckon "cave abroad" outside of the occasional trip to well known caves in Spain or France tho' ? I bet its low single figures.

Gosh look at that beautiful textbook rigging... A loop to clip into, a deviation to keep you away from the water... Has Garlands pot ever been rigged like that before lol!

That's happened to me...much to the hilarity of my companions

For years that was how it was done and i don't remember it being more "call-out" prone than it is now (if anything the reverse) The humerous photos up-thread show it being done with all matter of "toy" Inflatables...(I've done it myself with an Inflatable Killer Whale and an Action Man...

Very interesting mine...but most definately haunted...some very strange goings on when we were in there!

In fairness the boat is a relatively recent addition and for many years you always had to take your own Inflatable Boat in

I remember some fairly sizeable Roach in Slaughter Stream Cave (Wet Sink)

Even if you only read it...and didn't comment on it?

Just wondering what water levels are like currently? We're coming down at the weekend and wondering what we can plan trip wise... Cheers

Whilst I'm aware that most of the UK is presently sinking under the waves LOL...just wondered what water levels were like in S Wales at the minute...down for the weekend and planning what trips are feasible... Saturday looks a drier day than Sunday but as ground saturated everywhere likely to...

As a caver can I apply for a key to access Aggie? I'd never heard of any problems so assumed I'd be able to request a key if we gave enough notice...(we're planning an end of Feb trip) Just visited the Llangattock site though and the form to request access looks like it can only be completed...

What are the water levels like on mendip at the moment? Got a Swildons trip coming up this week... Cheers! Sent from my SK17i using Tapatalk 2

Going to have a look at Langstroth on Sunday... Will probably investigate sumps first before committing to a through trip... Can anyone let me know what they're like and share any thoughts about the dive through? Cheers!

Quick query...anyone heard anything about problems/collapse etc - someone mentioned it to me and we're thinking of doing the through trip soon...if anyone knows anything...will save me having a look at the downstream end first... Cheers!

Having admired the recent Robbie Shone photo's of this...we were thinking of a look round as an alternative to one of our mid-week evening caving trips... Does anyone have info on the entrance to share... I believe its by the side of the river near the railways station and heads downstream...

Probably a daft question given the recent weather/rainfall... What are conditions like in the dales at the moment? Wet i'm assuming... But not to bad to try one of the usual wet weather alternatives like Boggarts Roaring Holes maybe? Cheers!

Was pretty wet last weekend and we've had/are having some rain this week... What are water levels like at the moment? May have trip(s) Friday night and Saturday...is everything going to be do-able?

Just a couple of quick queries that people may/may not now the answer to... 1. Has access been restored to Eldon Quarry for Sidetrack Cave or is that still out of bounds? 2. Did any progress get made regarding talking to the Landowner at with regard to access for Christmas Swallet? 3. Has...
