Are you ready?

Trip: Bog Mine

Trip Type: General mooch round the Ladder museum

Meet time: 18.30

Meet point: Llanferres lay-by on the Mold/Ruthin Rd.

Notes: It`s not called the ladder museum for nothing, this is quite a sporty trip with loads of ladders, some scrambling, false floors and water at the bottom level - all in all great fun!!

It will be interesting to see how much water there is in the bottom level - I suspect it will now be ceiling height again and impassable just like the Spar mine :dry:

You seem to like all sorts of squeezy, wet, damp and dirty holes. I have noticed you also enjoy caving :blink:

You won't need a wetsuit - you will get covered in the usual goo.

Cowstails not essential but there are a couple of places you can and should clip on. Bring them if you have them. :)

I have just looked at Ian's film 'Bolting the Bog Mine' and it seems the 'Ladders' are wire laders similar to electrons, not nice solid fixed steel ladders as in Hendre.  Should newibes like me be hitched to a belay for this trip?
