We  had an excellent time in Daren it was the camp this weekend . 5 of us went to camp . I arrived at camp rather late  well after 1am dinner had been cooked but was kindly saved for us it was good . went off to bed about 2am then was up for 8.30 am helped prepare the cooked breakfast and plan the days caving  ahead . There is nothing like a cooked breakfast at hard rock its the best breakfast you could ever eat  . lunch was prepaired in readiness for an army of hungry cavers later on in the day .

We all set off to the Restrant  through rock steady cruise  a very pleasant place then for some low sections then down though the Micron down to Ankle grinder then on through the duck and up the ladder and then into the restrant . It was a little bit different then I thought it would be I thought it would be bigger then it was .
We then went to Cordillera Blanca and then onto the Blue Greenies then we had a look down Leone-Jaynes play pen . then we all headed back to camp for a spot of lunch  .

After lunch we then headed off to the Western flyover then over to Eastern flyover we then landed up at KPs dig . intersting dig near frag street  .  after a while we headed back to hard rock for dinner . I headed off to my pit  early for some well earned sleep after all the days play .

8 am and Time to get up again for another cooked breakfast and to pack away camp for our trip out . we headed out a slightly different route though Half mile and the the meeting room then drooped into Time machine and out the usual way .

It was an excellent camp really looking forward to the next one  :D
