It's a bit of a hike up to Five Ways Pot on Dowlass Moss.  First you walk up to Mayday Hole (almost) and then it's a 600m hike across rough moorland and bog to the shakehole.  It's probably best to use GPS to find the correct one.

The pot itself has 7 pitches plus some impressivly scaffolded down climbs.  Most of the pitches are straight forward apart from the first one which is a little 'snug' for a few feet.  I'd recommend taking a sling to stand in for the first re-belay on the top pitch.

About

There are many club organised caving weekends, with a mixture of easy and difficult caving.  Over the past few years we have given lots of people the opportunity to experience caving with our "Try Caving" events.  These are quite popular and quite a few people have subsequently joined the club. We have YSS members caving most weekends so it is easy for new cavers to tag onto the easier caving trips and find people to help with more training.
