DCA volunteer installers have been active in a couple of caves recently and we've published two new rigging topos.
Eyam Dale House Cave has had 2 more deviations placed. Use of all the deviations removes the rope rub from the entrance shaft. They can be rigged with very short slings or climber's quickdraws.

Nickergrove Mine has had a new rebelay placed under the lid of Didsbury Shaft to reduce the rope rub from the lid frame and allow the lid to be closed while rigged. The anchor in the side level of the Internal Shaft was reported loose, and has been replaced with a pair of new anchors. As you might have seen in another thread here, the wire and ring pull-through assembly has been upgraded to one of the new DCA chain setups. The whole topo for the mine has been redrawn to show all the DCA anchors.
