Hi - has anyone found a Petzl Stop near Bullpot Farm? Possibly in the wash-up stream area. It went missing at the end of August so it could be anywhere by now!
Morning! So here's a simple question with no underlying agenda or opinion...
Who has put all the bolts in Goyden?
The 'new' or at least newer ones on both sides of the first window and the passage before it; the ones at the chain climb up towards Church Pot.
Cheers

Yesterday I found a pair of orange gloves near Montague East passage. They look brand new and we're placed neatly by the trail as if someone had just removed them to take a picture.
I had forgotten mine so I slipped them on to find they were lined with what can only assume was real mink fur...
Due to lack of use I'm selling my Petzl Rack.
Great condition - used twice.
?30. Plus another ?5 p+p
I'll post a picture when I figure that out! There's pictures on fb outdoor gear exchange
So I found this in a local cave. It looks like these guys have crawled over some gour pools and expired - leaving their bodies to be calcified.
So can anyone shed some more light on them? Are they Rove Beetles? Do they metamorphose, leaving a shell behind to fossilise? Or do they just sit there...
Hi internet folk, a few of us are planning on heading over the Dales this afternoon; we were looking at maybe Simpsons/Swinsto pull-throughs, Aquamole or something. But now it's lashing it down here (Thirsk/Northallerton) so I wondered what it's like over there?
Cheers George
PS - we'll...
Hi, I just wanted to check with the locals if there is a handline in place above the forth pitch in Oxlow? I think the passage is called West Swirl Passage.
We're planning a trip there on Sunday.
Thanks in advance.

Tonight we went to have a look down Limley Pot only to find a large boulder jammed near the top. It was about 2 feet x 1 foot x half a foot and pretty much blocking the way. it did look as though it had been thrown in there.
We tried to get it out and I managed to get a sling around it (which...
I have 7 old 'Camp Rock Star' helmets to dispose of.
They were once white; they have holes drilled in the back with a buckle through to hold a battery and they have a lamp mount bracket on the front.
There's not a lot else I can say about them.
A charitable donation of ?10 for the lot would...
On Thursday 13th, last week, we did some work at and around Goyden Pot:
The rope at the first little pitch by the big window has been replaced and labelled 'Goyden 1'.
The rope in Mud Hall has been replaced and labelled 'Goyden 2'.
Both are brand new shiny static, kindly donated by How Stean...
Hello Anybody,
Me and a friend have the weekend free and would love to go and do Titan. Has anyone got a trip planned that we could tag along on? I'm not sure how it works with the key and things - we'll happily buy some beers (or fine wines) if there are any places going!
Were free both Sat...
Today we found a tackle bag in Short Drop.
It contained one 8" Stalactite :spank:
If you can describe the bag and other contents you can have it back.

Hi,
I'm coming to South Wales caving for the first time next week (5th dec). I'll hopefully have a partner with local knowledge for Monday but I'd like to stay on a few more days and really get to see the place. Is there anyone one around for Tuesday and Wednesday and maybe even Thursday who...
The family and I have been invited to Boston, MA over xmas and new year - what chance do I have of getting out for a day's caving?
I'm looking on the web and elsewhere, but i just thought i'd ask on here while i'm at it - thanks
George
Have you seen this? :o

If anyones that desperate they can have mine for ?65 :tease:
At the risk of sounding like I have no mates (see previous thread) I now find myself partnerless for tomorrow - Thursday 3rd. If anyone out there fancies doing something, I'd prefer the Dales but it's not far to the peak either. Please get in touch.
Cheers
George
Hi,
I'm off down to the Peak next weekend. I have a partner for the Friday and Monday but he's dumped me for Sat 5th and Sun 6th. :down: Is anyone planning any trips and wouldn't mind if I tagged along? Or is anyone thinking "I want to go caving next weekend but I've got no-one to go with -...
