YSS have had a rough weekend.

I only knew him for a short time, he was a very impressive and determined man.

Condolences to his very good mates in the club and especially his family.

Tragic news.
Is Low Birkwith where Trevor Kemp died a few years ago?
I understand the sumps are notoriously difficult to get through. Doesn't the cave connect to Dismal Hill / Old Ing?

Tragic news indeed. RIP.

Is Low Birkwith where Trevor Kemp died a few years ago?

No that was diving from Dismal Hill to Birkwith Cave.
