Title: Thursday trip 17th May.
Post by: Stephen Davies on May 15, 2018, 12:54 PM
Hi folks,

There are two trips this week.

TRIP No. 1:  This is a trip that Tom has organised to Ragmans passage.  Details have been circulated via email and more info is in the private section.

TRIP No. 2: To Poachers cave.  This trip is being put on for new people to see an actual cave. We will explore as much as we possibly can including the boss stalagmite and lower series. There is a short electon to go down (15ft) and people can be lifelined if they wish.

MEET TIME: 6:30 - 45pm

MEET POINT: Car park by the bridge and opposite caravan park at the bottom on the Cilcain to Pantymywyn road.  

This trip is open to non members but you will need a helmet, lamp, caving suit/overalls, wellies, change of clothes. We can lend you a helmet and lamp but will need to know in advance.

Thank you
Steve.

I'd like to bring my Daughter along. She's 14 keen, and has been down the spa mine .
Unfortunately we may only get there for about 7 ish.
Do you think you may still be sorting the ladder out then and we can catch up?
Cheers

You can certainly catch up ..... but ... the trip may well be dependant on people coming (which is why I asked for replies in the email).

Frank, chances are we will still be getting changed and according to my watch, people turn up far too early!!!! Dependant on how quick I get back from work, it may be closer to 7pm before I get there.
