Hello all
We have been made aware of some boulder movement on one our our region's most popular routes.
For anyone visiting Ease Gill Caverns in the foreseeable future, planning to pass up/down the muddy slope from the high level passage on the eastern side of Stake Pot, please take a read of this warning:
cncc.org.uk
This is a particularly well-travelled route and will include anyone doing a high-level traverse between Fall Pot (i.e. Lancaster Hole/Cow Pot) and the upsream entrances, or vice versa, or anyone ascending/descending between the higher level eastern passages and the Main Drain at Stake Pot.
We strongly advise anyone passing the area to visually identify the at-risk boulders (see photos) and take appropriate measures to avoid them.
Thank you to the volunteers who reported and inspected this issue.
