Title: Thursdays Trip - 13th February 2014
Post by: Vikki Sestan on Feb 11, 2014, 09:34 AM
Thursday 13th February 2014 â€" Belgrave

Trip One: Belgrave Mine

Meet Point: Llanferres lay by (about 100 meters past the Druid Inn on the A494 between Mold and Ruthin)

Meet time: 18.45

Notes: A good mooch about Belgrave mine. Bit of a steep hill to find the entrance but a nice scramble about in the mine, definitely a good workout and knee pads helpful if you have them.

***there may be an opportunity to do some SRT on this trip, if I can guarantee a rigger/slave

How much water will there be in the bottom level? We've had a s**t load of rain/snow here.
I've never seen it above knee high but just a thought.
