Had a couple of novices from our village who wanted to have a go at caving, so off to Birkwith we went.
Headed into Birkwith first, upto the canal and back, closely followed by Old Ing, down to the sump and back.
Next headed for Browgill and went through to to Calf Holes where everyone enjoyed a dip under the waterfall as the water was reasonably low and surprisingly warm (ish). Next headed behind the waterfall, surprised to see how far it went, got to the chamber at the end then headed back through the system.
While getting changed into dry clothes it p***ed it down so ended up soaked again
Keith Curran, Nick Martin, Nathan Horner, Julie Butcher, James Finch
Time - 4 hours ish
