tl;dr: The ropes in Titan are for digging team use only. If you flout this and I find out, overall access to Titan will be reviewed.
Hi all,
I've been digging in different locations of Peak/ Speedwell since 2018; for most of this time I have kept Titan permanently rigged to speed up operations. Following an incident last year where we found our rope cored, these ropes are now strictly for digging team use only. A picture of the damaged section is attached, the damage was bad enough that it could have caused a fatality. I never managed to identify the cause, several parties had used the ropes in the interim and rock contact is categorically impossible.
Please understand that I'm not doing this because I'm a total bastard but because the above has me concerned for my life and those who give up their time and energy to drive the dig(s) forward.
I'm writing this now because a recent party has re-rigged my ropes in a fashion that makes descent impossible, meaning digging cannot take place until they correct their mistake.
Cheers,
Alex
