Title: Thursday Night Trip - 17 Sept 2015 - Poacher's Cave
Post by: Tony Salusbury on Sep 14, 2015, 01:05 PM
Hi all.

We have some newcomers we met at the village shows coming along so here is this weeks trip.

Trip: Poacher's Cave (http://www.ucet.org.uk/index.php/forum/21-knowledge-bank/896-ogof-hen-ffynnonau-poachers-cave) <--- Click for Knowledge Bank link

Trip Type: General Mooch

Meet Time: 6.30pm

Meet Place: Cilcain Bridge.

Google Map Link: https://goo.gl/maps/TO8TO

This is an ideal beginner's introduction to a natural cave so if you know anyone who would like to come along then drag them with you.

I will bring the GoPro and do another video too.

Tony

We have 8 newbies coming along this week :)  so can people bring spare lids again please. I will bring my 4 spares.

I think as some of newbies live near Cilcain/Mold we should pop to The Crown afterwards for one before moving on to the Glan.

I will be there in spirit (ie. not there) all the way from Scotland - don't forget the lost tales of Poachers when you take them down never to return to the surface mwhahahahaaaaa

A good turnout last night and an excellent trip. Our 8 newcomers did fantastically well and it was great to see them very keen and eager to explore the underworld.

Well done to everyone involved last night and we hope to see you again soon.
