24th-25th June: Eastwater & Draenen PDF Print E-mail
Log book

Saturday: Kev and I went down through Morton's Pot's 'technical masterpiece' to look at the sump and hopefully get to the 'chamber of horrors'. Waterloo was unfortuately sumped up and is usually bailled from the other side. Although it might be possible to bail it from this side, I think it would fill up the duck below 'never hurry a Murray' - this does appear to run off so it wouldn't be a long term issue and the water level is pretty low at the moment.

Sunday: We were supposed to go digging in Aggy (Rich Bayfield, Charlotte Harris and I) with Martin Beale but he didn't show up on Sunday morning so we went to have a look at one of Rich's leads in Draenen. We headed underground at about 11am and set off for the Big Country. Rich's lead only required a few taps of a lump hammer before he broke through and up into a tiny chamber. Unfortunately the way on from here was blocked. Charlotte meanwhile pushed through a squeeze, too tight for either of us but again the cave ended quickly.
