Tourist/Novice caving in New Zealand:
Having had a quick look online there are hundreds of links to tourist trips and lots of club links to super-hard caves in New Zealand.
I was wondering if anyone has done any caving in New Zealand and if so could you recommend a guide book?
I am looking for long/wet trips, scrambles fine but where kit (other than occassional lifeline) is unnecessary. I want to be able to read up on areas/caves without SRT and ladders and without squeezes...
...yes yes, I know for most those are the fun bits ;oP...
Any info appreciated. I am leaving UK in November so info before then would be helpful (although I am not going to NZ until January.
Cheers people
