[quote="Stevekennedy" post=40466]No. It’s concrete capped but has a triangle hole in the top. It’s about 60 feet I think.
I don’t have any pictures of the top.[/quote]

Here's some pictures of it

Thanks for that. I think this is footway shaft - I don't think it connects anywhere interesting without some digging and there are more interesting areas to dig in Minera  :lol:

Hi, Been reading the treads on this topic. Me and my brother are the ones who put the ladder up the shaft at the end of the Grand Turk passage. Loss my bottle to go any further up as had no protection at the time.It was quite a while before we returned and by that time someone had climbed it and put a rope down. We went up and had a hour digging the end of the passage, plenty of rocks falling down this rift passage. We went some months later and the rope had gone. Also did a through trip from Cabin Shaft to the Bear Pit entrance before it was dug out and it had branches across. Been down the Shaft with the dog down this weekend. Did you come across the streamway with the small white waterfall in? Got some photos of the passage where the white water fall is. We climb the rope climbs at the end of the white vain some years ago and it leads to a horrible boulder choke. My brother heard it joined to the mine passage at the end of the Grand Turk passage we were digging in but not to sure if it does.
