I'm surprised that Sugar Candy Palace hasn't been mentioned.

For the uninitiated, where is this then?

I've always found Notts 2 and Illusion Pot to be pretty but some of the sights in Easegill are equally lovely.

Gaping Gill Main Chamber is spectacular. The BPC winch meet will be up and running soon. Official announcement.

I'm afraid it's so dry up there that there won't be much in the way of waterfalls until we get some rain. Fell Beck is barely a trickle.

I can find only a single mention of it on the web, and it looks like it involves at least two up-pitches which may or may not have potentially quite old (2005) insitu rope and (potentially non-stainless) anchors?

It's a personal decision, but I would be happy to use them.

Illusion is rather pretty, and the ducks are very ducky right now

Damned auto correct, the ducks AREN'T very ducky, remarkably dry
