Hi, does anyone know what's the current arrangements are for access to Peak Cavern, that's if cavers are being allowed in. Ta
 
Cheers, thanks for the info, much appreciated. Does anyone know if the water levels are high at the moment? I know a strange question considering the current heatwave.
 
Very wet yesterday - well over "the step" (photo by Charley Cooley). Rivers still quite high today. Should improve over the weekend.

Ah, that checks out with us being waterboarded in Titan yesterday. I naively thought there hadn't actually been that much rain.
 
Yes, there was no way we were getting into Peak last Wednesday, certainly not without one of Mr Musk's pods!
I went in on Sunday and it was fine, the levels were high for this time of year but with the amount of rain that fell over here recently...
