Following the excesses of the President's BBQ (mainly coleslaw), the caving numbers were depleted for the Sunday trips.
The weather forecast was not good, so we canned Out Sleets Beck and went for Shuttleworth & Gavel instead.
Changing on Leck was more pleasant than normal and we were soon heading across the fell to the cave.
The plan was to drop the first three pitches and look at the fourth pitch & the formations before heading back out.
We achieved this in fairly short order and Lynn was persuaded to derig the pitches 3 & 2 on the way out, a first go at derigging for her!
Ros derigged the entrance pitch and we were soon back at the car with no real change in the weather.
Team: Lynn, Ros & Dave
Time: About 2h30.
