Gaping Gill - Sunday 26/5/2013 - DO NOT MISS IT

[Alison Webster]

I will come along too please.  

[Danny Sutton]

Great stuff ali, added to the list :-)

[Andrew Farrow]

ok - a couple of points

any one wishing to go down on the winch will face a long wait - i realise that arriving on the fell at ` opening time ` - is nigh impossible if you are driving up from wildest wales - but the wiinching rate is 15 ~20 / hour - and queues do form - 1 hour wait is not atypical

which obviously makes attempting to meet others underground a bit problematic

booking a chit to come back out only takes 1 ~ 5 minuites - whatever the queues

dylan - we can create the GG triathalon for ya - cycle up - have a swim in pool passage - or far waters - and run back down to clapham - far more fun

mike - no idea on routes - like dan says - see who actually makes it up the fell and what they fancy - and plan on the fly - we leave call-outs with the bradford and everything is rigged - so it makes no difference

one final thought though - is anyone up for a weekend ? - there are cave huts [ YSS at helwith ] , bunkhouses [ clapham ] or campsites

rock up - and do a trip saturday - stay over - and you are on site for a good start sunday ?

[Tony Salusbury]

Can you add Amy to the list please Dan.

[Danny Sutton]

Done.. :-)

looks like a good turnout for this, dont worry about the queues for the winch, you dont have to "stand in a line" you have a number and they put a sign asking for number x to number y to go to the winch, so you are free to sit on the grass or take pictures or what ever untill you are asked to queue.

WINCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Danny Sutton]

LOL..

only for the peep's who dont SRT.

that said, i'm tempted to use it to exit, lazy caving is the future.

[Tim Watts]

i'm tempted coz it means i'm more likely to take more camera kit ;-) or failing that, i'll let someone else take my camera kit back up the winch for me ;-)

[Danny Sutton]

i'll carry it out IF i exit on the winch...

i'm not taking mine, or if i do it'll just be the small one, i've done GG 3 times now and lugged the camera every time

[Richard Sawyer]

Been wanting to do this for ages : can you add me to the list of descenders please.

[Danny Sutton]

Done..
