While the other group took on the traverses, Alex W and myself went with Sarah, Jeremy and Mark H all of the Wessex on a Through trip.
This remarkably involved walking downhill from the Hut to the lower entrance and walking downhill back to the hut when we had exited the higher entrance, with several hours of fantastic caving and a brilliant streamway in between. Thanks to Mark for some excellent route finding, Sarah for making this a fully catered caving trip with some great home baking and Jeremy for transporting us there.
I cannot wait to go back to South Wales for some more, it is not an area I have done much caving in, something I clearly need to rectify.

Sounds like quite an adventure.

South Wales is great!
I think Damian said they used to organise a weeks trip there? (Would this count as a trip abroad :silly: ) :laugh:

Amazing how little walking there is to and from the entrances too!

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.
