Speaking abou this recently with folks and I know that when there where CO2 probs in Knotlow, folks where taking gas meters in and a small pony and reg to breath off if they got into trouble.
So a couple of points. Cavers have already been to the bottom, dug, and got themselves out, so one assumes the concentrations aren't *that* high (of course this can change over time).
Also - cavers entering now should be prepared with a bottle and reg, but, it neednt be a full on 2 sidemount, double reg, reel knife affair, a small waist mounted pony would surely suffice.
