I'm up at the weekend, but won't be up for this due to the monster drive back down South from Yorkshire on the Sunday!

Have a good one.

Suggest we do white river in Derbyshire instead? Via in/out via JH or would people want me to book Peak in and out? Just a thought that if so wet this week Yorkshire options might be limited. And some missed white river last time which was a shame?

Looks like the Yorkshire trip is going to become a Derbyshire trip. Entrance being arranged via peak.

Up block hall (already rigged)  to explore the white river series and then down ventilator as a pull though.

For those who did it last time, its the same thing but the opposite way round. For those who didn't do it last time.... Well, you'll love it!

Tom and I plan on taking stills cameras. Hopefully tony will take video (and won't need a poo!)

Out for tea and medals afterwards!

I'm sure somone will. Might be cold and eaten by the time they get to Wales, I suspect some unusually sluggish driving.

Whats the plan? in Via speedwell (neck deep water as I seem to understand) SRT up a 100 metre waterfall, follow a stream passage, more neck deep water, SRT down another 100 metre waterfall. Possibly slither through someone's intestines, and out via peak?
Title: Yorkshire Trip - Sunday 15th November 2015
Post by: Tim Watts on Nov 12, 2015, 07:46 PM
Ant kinda.

In via peak, through some 'puddles'. Through a tiny bit of a moist crawl, Up to white river via block hall (there is no river at the top), back down again via another route (ventilator - as a pull through), and back out via peak again... easy. Simple.

Right, for those coming. We have to be into peak by 9:30am. No later!

So, I'm leaving my place in the landy at 6.45. Picking everyone up at mikes at 7.00am

Leaving Mikes House at 7am prompt (In landy)



Seating for everyone - no problem.
Title: Yorkshire Trip - Sunday 15th November 2015
Post by: Tim Watts on Nov 13, 2015, 07:42 PM
Could everyone bring £4 (correct change) for their peak fee's.

I've printed and will have with me the forms you all need to sign.

Please please don't be late to mike house - we need to LEAVE mikes a 7am so i'll be getting there at 6:50am to get loaded.

We need to be at TSG at 9am and underground by 9:30 as the keyholder needs to be off to another appointment and really can't be late.

I REPEAT - WE NEED TO LEAVE MIKES BY 7AM.

Suggest furry and oversuit for all. Will be getting wet on way in and out but generally dry the rest of the day.

Remember full SRT kits, food/drink for 7 hours (ish) and spare batteries etc.

I'll be bringing 9mm rope for the pull through down ventilator.

Remember your £4 for the peak fee (exact change)

I imagine we'll get something to eat in castleton afterwards. i.e. pub.
