Fawlty Tower, The Trenches, Liam's Way and Colostomy Crawl Photographs Wanted

Just recently revisited the trenches and it seems to be getting less muddy in areas. Theres more areas where you can nearly stand up completely and it’s a solid floor rather than mud and seems generally drier in some places as seen with the photo which allot of it was like.
Not sure whether it’s due to the drier year?

I might be able to help but only a little. I managed a couple of trips to Main Rising in the 80's just after the link was opened up but on both occasions we dived in through Treasury and I do recall it was bit snug on one occasion. I did take a picture of the 'slug trail' out of Egnaro Aven as it was so striking. Don't know whether it looks like that now after 40 years but here it is. I included the shot of the ladder base as it shows the sludge pushed down the pitch

Thanks for posting these. I have sent you a PM.

Some great photos, it looks fairly similar still with the sludge.
