Continued to enlarge the rift to make room for a more comfortable working space. Removed a rather large slab of conglomerate that needed reducing in size to fit into the skip. I’m a little bit wary of the sediment overhead at the moment and thinking about the best way to remove it, could be a choked rift, will give it some further careful consideration. It might be an idea to remove the slabs barring access at the ‘T’ junction and open up some more options, possibly making some room under the solid roof to the right of the rift.

On the way back from another digging session along the rift at the end of Toil and Trouble.


Into the Hunter’s to contemplate.
