Breakthrough - Titan Streamway

[Goydenman]

Thanks for that Rob the video is amazing - raw - you get a real feel of the excitement but also the suspense as slowly you make your forward and try and take it in, checking. I now want to do that for our dig - and capture the cave linkage. Well done again.

Titan Streamway Survey.

For those who are interested we've uploaded the new stuff found by the "Two Robbies" onto the Peak.3d survex file. It's only a line survey at the moment but it will give an idea of what's there.

This can be found by going to :

Just before on the left a small grovel soon met a 1m diameter phreatic tube. Right ended with the same flowstone blockage, however left went for a few meters before closing down to a strongly draughting dig.

This dig was checked yesterday by myself and Robbie. After a few minutes digging I squeezed through a couple meters into an airbell with a too tight rift in the roof. Straight on the main passage continues but it almost completed full of mud. This is where some of the draught comes from, but it would require a lot of effort to push! It's a cold place 

All of our work, including the surveying, is now completed and the pitch now fixed rigging (use at your own risk, it is 9mm). Feel free to go and enjoy...

Did you survey to the bitter end?

If so can you please send me the numbers so we can see where the end is....

If not, why?

 

[Rob]

Yes, surveyed it. Will send the numbers over tomorrow. Probably only 15m or so.

And we can go into details about why its taken until now to survey passed Tiddlywinks if you want...

 

[Moose]

I am waiting on both counts..........

 

[Moose]

Yep, the survey is now 15m longer.

Will post a link very soon.
