Title: Cwmorthin 20th May 2018
Post by: Ian A on May 18, 2018, 09:39 AM
A last minute, impromptu trip has been organised to Cwmorthin for Sunday.

Meet Time :
10:45am to 11:00am
Meet Place : Tanygrisiau Café (see link)
Equipment needed : Usual caving stuff, (+ tails), food, drink

We will be taking the "fookious Aboutious Aroundious" (Grand mystery tour) with no particular expected time out.

We may encounter Go Below trips and we will need to stay away from their activities.

Well you voluntarily came to Dinorwig with us...

And, it's not a mine but an underground quarry...  :whistle:

You did give us a good day out. Thank you very much.

There is no "plan" .... we haven't been for ages and obviously the place has changed. We have previously done the "tourist route" so will go off track.

If you are coming -  you can guide us!

Love to come but I have had a very full social diary lately, especially now I have my boat.  In Helwith Bridge right now so I will not be able to travel all the way to Ffestiniog Sunday.  Thursday night 7 June is still on, though.
