Is the dead lamb still in the little alcove at the bottom of the fourth pitch ?

It was there earlier in 2012 for both our trips and someone with a sense of humour had left a couple of cooking utensils (a ladle and spoon) nearby. :-)  

Nice trip report, I've always rigged the lateral traverse route from the trees - the rigger and de-rigger have great fun! I must try your alternate rigging sometime...

Cheers,
Dave

Thanks Dave, the utenstils are still there but no dead lamb (some bones though).

See you soon ?

the trease are now dead - deader than " that " parrot - they move alarmingly in any wind

i would not rig off them - plus - if you descend the gulley - are are extra bolts to rig a safe descent of the main shaft

Thanks for the heads up. They seemed to be OK at the start of 2012 - I gave them a good shove and not much moved and there was no wind. It looks like the way it is now rigged there is less of a pendulum :-(  We will probably be doing Jingling and Aquamole in the next couple of months...

Haha - the vice?? that the same vice i abseiled down with a big caving bag on my back containing a very large, solid and bulky pelicase and tripod plus another large bag containing two ropes hanging of my harness (as seen on the first video).

Dan you fat fooker - make sure you don't replace those red bulls with extra pies! ;-) haha

great banter - nice to get myself out on a no nonsense good fun day out :-)
