Now then... who's up for an underground trip this Thursday PM.

After two (mostly) surface trips the last couple of weeks the concensus was for a hardcore wet, muddy, srt epic... Or perhaps a nice mooch round a slate mine and a swift half afterwards Big Grin

Llion are you out there mate? Are you out on Thursday? Are all your fingers still in place? Do they all work yet or would you prefer a gentle U/G wander with no water or SRT? Big Grin

I'm easy, no preferences here Laugh

How about a look at the other part of Rhiwbach? The pit and separate set of workings. Small I think. But looked interesting from Teigl's video.

Sounds a plan, 6.30 at the Bwlch car park. Thee, me and Owain so far. Llion? Should be just a gentle amble this one.

Can see you in Blaenau at 6.15 and show you the way if you like. Easier than explaining!
