Chris Jewell in Hurtle - picture by Mike BottomleyMike Bottomley give me a hand with my gear into Roaring on Sat - and waited patiently whilst I dived. This is an awkward site, with a rift you need to negotiate in your dry suit and a pitch down into the sump pool. I used a 5lt stage bottle and 2 x 10ltrs EANx30. Had to do some line patching at 30m at the bottom of the shaft, then headed off between 30-31m, hitting thirds just as I dropped down to 34m - presumably not far from the end of the line - but frustrating not to have got to put some new line down!
Total dive time - 84mins, with less than 10mins deco.

On Sunday went with Mike for a training dive into Hurtle - vis just getting good - though expect rain today will have ruined that!
