it slighty moist. the worst part is the crawl. its not tight at all but its just too low for hands and knees meaning shirty damp mud on your belly. the last bit through to the shiw cave is waist deep but fron the time you get wet its fairly rapid to the exit. I wore a thin furry and my warmback,a few weeks back ans was fine. should be nice and dry in sat due ro recent dry spell.

corin. got the new peak district guide book whixh i'll also bring with me.

if we're camping i'd suggest somewhere thats either close to a pub or failing that somewhere that allows an open fire to have sone beers around. i've got a steel bbq/firepit on legs that I could strap to the roof of the landy...? anyone care to suggest suitable site?

Camping sites. Well I camped up there last weekend, there are 2 sites in Castleton, one Caravan & Camp club members only and a horrid pokey one by the road.

We ended up at Flagg www.knotlowfarm.co.uk. There is an area up the slope on the left as you go in which would suit a small group and allows braziers. £7 pppn. Planes for Manchester airport do pass overhead but the stars were excellent. It is 45 mins to Castleton and on the wrong side if you are coming from N Wales B)

However a camp site near a pub is near a busy road :( .

There are sites nearer Buxton, but no quality indicators.  A starting point.........

I do have the Camp/Caravan guide for the Peak district.

I'll meet you at the car park as I need to do a flyer depending on time after we get out (If thats OK by everyone)

I'm not gonna camp any more - for various reasons. Travelling from North Wales sunday morning - be at the Glan at 7am if you want to jump in for a lift.

Failing that we need to meet at 9:30 at the TSG old chapel - GREEN DOORS HERE:
http://maps.google.co.uk/?ll=53.343356,-1.775268&spn=0.000219,0.000431&t=h&z=21&vpsrc=6&layer=c&cbll=53.343356,-1.775268&panoid=Z2yrQ-YIAX5vstERCtycBA&cbp=12,321.41,,0,15.54

Park where you can in the village and then make your way in your clean kit to the chapel (link above) hammer on the green door and say you're with me from UCET - hopefully i'll already be there. Bring all your caving kit with you as we can get geared up in the chapel and then i'll run us all up to the top of titan in our dirty gear in the landy - saves getting changed on the mountain and means we walk straight back to the chapel when we come out to get hot showers and clean gear :-)
