Some of us were attending Hidden Earth (BCRA national caving conference) in Llangollen, North Wales. Others were digging but, so far, a report on Saturday’s activities has not been forthcoming…until now
Report by Jon:
“…Jake, Paul, Tav, Nick, and Jon
Things started well. Paul assumed control and the Team remembered The Key. At the cave, Jon and Tav were instructed to dig, supported by Jake. Nick and Paul hauled and stacked the spoil bags, including a few extra. Inside Can of Worms, Tav dug on the right and cleared back to what appears to be solid wall, all across. Jon dug to the left, currently this is ongoing, but hard digging. The infill is very dry and compact. More broken stalagmites were found on both sides.
80 bags of spoil were removed from the cave, along with a few rocks.
Jake returned The Key to its rightful place. The Team then retired to a local hostelry for light refreshments.”
