Vince, Jake, Mike, Jon, Nick, and Tav
Another early start for some more ’rock-bothering’ beyond Trick or Treat. Took a couple of hefty chunks of the still rather large conglomerate boulder in the current dig face before the team arrived. On arrival, Jake continued to dig the ‘bone by-pass’ (after I’d packed my kit away, of course) to the left of the obstructing boulder. Mike hauled the spoil up the slope, I carried it across the chamber to the hump where it was pulled over to the other side by Jon, Tav moved the spoil along to the bottom of the pot. Nick was probably opening a Can of Worms. As usual, when a suitable pile of spoil had accumulated the support team moves back to get it shifted out to the surface (this was repeated a couple of times or so). At the close of the digging session, Jake lifted the ‘protective’ board covering the potential bone-bearing deposit to carefully clear away some of the slop.
Today’s count was 50 bags filled, hauled, and emptied and a rather large pile of rocks moved up to the surface and awaiting addition to the spoil heap wall wherever required. It was time to make our way to the Hunters’ for some refreshment.
