Evening trip down Diccan. It seems it was Rich's first visit. Water levels were extremely low and all went well until we returned to the car and Rich realised he had left the keys at the entrance.

Momentarily I thought he had drawn the short straw having to go back up and get it. Then I saw the swarm of midges homing in rapidly on my head. Balaclava on and there was almost no skin left from them to get at. I upacked the ropes then, when Rich returned, changed very quickly and dived in the car .. only 18 bites on the arms the next morning!

Time: 1.5hrs
Party: Damian & Rich

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.
