Recently there was long thread about the BCA. I can now post possible answers to some of the questions, such as "Why is the BCA still raising membership prices when there is a significant amount still left in its coffers?"
Went today, absolutely excellent cave, one of the best I've done for some time. Has real character and great variety. If this wasn't in Wharfedale it would be a yorkshire classic!
Regarding the rigging: resin anchors are in place on the opening 4 pitches and none after. Agree that there seem to be a lot of needless thru-bolts in there. If the resin anchor installers working on the cave would like someone to help carry the kit etc I will gladly offer my services.
Also agree that this cave is extremely well-suited to ladders.
I regretted not going down the last pitch, instead I chose to admire the root formations in the passage above it. I?ve always hoped that it is a miserable pitch down to a grotty sump.
