Proposal for Mich Term
(it's mind numbingly boring, but we can shake things up)
- First meet
- Swildon's Hole, Wessex
- I'd vote for this, but the Wessex often seem to have their AGm on the same weekend so we might have to compromise and go to a different hut. [Edvin]
- or P8 on ladders, Orpheus
- Swildon's Hole, Wessex
- Second meet
- OFD 1 & 2, other caves for the sunday?(Little Neath?), SWCC
- Sounds like a good plan. Little Neath is probably a bit intimidating for novices (unless it's a drought) but Bridge cave nearby could be a good option. [Edvin]
- OFD 1 & 2, other caves for the sunday?(Little Neath?), SWCC
- Third meet
- Bar Pot, Dihedral, Flood, etc... Ireby on the sunday (cave du jour!), Brackenbottom
- Bar+'non-novicey alternative' worked really well last year - but maybe we should avoid the entrances that we have for the 60th do (Dihedral, Flood, Stream)? Brackenbottom is good as it has an SRT training rig.[Edvin]
- Bar Pot, Dihedral, Flood, etc... Ireby on the sunday (cave du jour!), Brackenbottom
- Fouth meet
- Giants or P8 on rope, peak cavern on the sunday, TSG
- or something in Esegill (Lancs or BPW on rope) or anything else people fancy, the FARM
Caves I want to visit, are not novicey and require permits: Notts, Notts II, Washfold, Marble Steps, Gingling, Newby Moss, Little Hull... (Crescent Pot as well, but I'm not allowed to say it aloud)
Please add your suggestions! (Serena)
Christmas
Not an official trip, but anyone attending New Year is invited to join in: Toby will be caving in North-West Scotland, probably leaving Cambridge on 24 December and heading to Bullpot Farm around the 28th or 29th.
Caving areas include Skye, Applecross, Kishorn, Assynt, and possibly Appin - plenty of caves to go at!
New Year
Following the committee meeting on 23rd October we settled on Bull Pot Farm. I'll keep this space updated with which permits I have obtained so far:
27th December: Lancaster Hole, Corky's Pot
28th December: Penyghent, County Pot, Short Drop and Gavel
29th December: Cow Pot, Lost John's and Boxhead
30th December: Washfold, Link Pot, Notts II, Flood and Stream
31st December: Pippikin Pot, Death's Head and Big Meanie
1st January: Mistral, Car Pot
2nd January: Aygill Caverns
Feel free to let me know of any requests.
Easter Trip
A villa has now been booked for 21st-28th March 2009!
