    Lovely trip down Heron last night, though I'm sure the final crawl has become longer and the water at the exit deeper.

    Five Ways Pot anchoring 21-22nd October

    Huge thanks to the diggers, cappers, stone stackers, surveyors, bolters, topo drawers and description writers for the opening of this fantastic pot. Had a great trip last night. So good in fact we missed last orders! It's worth going just to see the Tonga trench. Not only is it an amazing bit of...

    ....and the cave passage this represents is??

    That queue made us think of caving too! The cheese they were giving out while we waited was called Yoredale - can't be many cheeses named after a geological series.

    Glasfurb's : did I get to the end?

    Cheers @langcliffe Turns out we've never been to the end then either! But by the sounds of things I'm not too fussed about going!

    Glasfurb's : did I get to the end?

    Unfortunately I've had the same experience not finding Glasfurd's chamber. The confusion came from where to turn right. In an earlier CNCC description I'm sure it said something about take the first right, but the current one reads: "At the bottom of this pitch a short crawl reaches a low...

    Found - watch in Marble Steps

    Analogue watch found in lower streamway of Marble Steps. Not sure if it's broken or if it's just that the battery has run out. May have been there a little while as date reads Saturday 16th. Let me know if you think it's yours and I can get it back to you.

    Photography Showcase 3 per week limit

    Gavel pot never disappoints. The upper sections are also accessible when it's a bit damp as it has been quite a lot recently. Also want to say huge thanks to Chunky. Ever since I spent a couple of days with him on a CNCC photography course have managed to get at least one shot I'm...

    Couple of questions about Meregill Hole

    The wire was just down the slope from the foot of the pitch, in the opposite direction to the way on so easy to miss, but there was quite a lot of it!

    Couple of questions about Meregill Hole

    Does anyone know where the long tangle of twin core/bell wire that was just down from the foot of the Mere pitch might have come from? It looks like the kind of wire that might have been used for a telephone system? They may be elsewhere too, but on the third pitch between the p bolt route and...

    Found: Compass at entrance to Penyghent pot

    Let us know a distinguishing feature and I'll post on. Works well as it saw us back to the wall after we emerged in the dark and the clag.

    Scurion trip report - Stylolite City

    ?I'd really like to see one of these stylolite things?, said Tony as we shivered our way back to the vans. I didn't have the heart to tell him that at nearly every hang, as my chilled fingers fumbled with the maillons, I?d been looking at stunning examples. There was also no way I was going...
