We did the new extensions after calling in to see Dave on saturday and agreeing to take some ropes down, and take some photos.

A superb find, with a lot of variety in a relatively short distance! Well done to Dave and co. Grade-wise, I expect a 4 would be about right...

Does anyone know if this place is still rigged or if not a rigging topo about?

Well we got down to the bottom fine and dandy on Sunday, it turned out to be an excellent trip. Airy entrance pitch and traverse, tight pitch heads and crawls an excellent streamway at the bottom (I thought this place was dry, but I guess not). We somehow guessed the rope lengths and thankfully the hangers were in-situ. I am sure we would have ran out otherwise. We drew on the rigging topo after our trip, which you can see some of in the vid...

The entrance shaft and the traverse below is an excellent place to get footage in.

Looked like an interesting trip. Impressive looking entrance with the waterfall. Enjoyed the video, now I never have to do it!  (y)
