Solo trip to look at sump beyond NCC extensions, Set off down West passage cavern 44 + 104 to mitchels cavern back to entrance and down cavern 84 and cave pearl passage on the way back looked into NE passage No 2, there seems to be a pitch through the boulder choke along the right hand wall, will have to ladder this next time round. The choke beyond NCC extensions a bit on the hairy side, the condition of the supporting timbers suggest a great age :ohmy: . The sump passage gets comfortably small with the odd bit of squeezy/thrutchy passage thrown in. Passed a small chamber with HWCPC 1977 written above the water line, the sump soon follows and all i can say about that sump is 'good god'. It is going to be a challenging push.
Time taken 3.5 hours caver present Nigel

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.
