crimbo pipe or chamber of horrors?

Just wondered which is more difficult.  Did crimbo today. Dropped waterfall then through via 4 ways, into crimbo and back out the climbing shaft after pulling waterfall rope back up.  Water was low so it went ok but fancy chamber of horrors next. Is it harder or about the same sort of level of grovelling in shitty water?

Or should I just steer clear.
 
After all that dry weather I was thinking C of H would be dry (ish). Doubt if that is the case now! I have just driven through the most spectacular hail storm I have ever seen!
Wait till it drys up a bit and I'll go and have a look at it with you. Not promising to go through though.
Also you need to check if you can get through the tight bit at the Oxlow end first.
 
Geoff Whitaker was quizzing me about Crimbo Pipe the other month..I think he mentioned you were going.
I did it in the eighties when I was young and foolish....I seem to remember enjoying it.
I did have a stab at Crimbo Swallet but bottled it.

 
It was a good trip and I would recommend it. However the passages around the ducks are all very "temporary" and caution must be exercised to not dislodge any of the deads. Also dry weather is a must.
The water must also be a bit shitty as I have an eye infection after being submerged in it.

Im pysching myself up for chamber of horrors next. If we get another dry spell. I will ask Geoff if he fancies it.
 
we went and had a brief look at C of H last monday... not draught what so ever, that was on a very warm night too.
