Moel Fferna Trip - 11/05/2013
Posted: 06/02/2013 15:03:19 Reply | Quote A new event has been added to the Events page. Event name: Moel Fferna Trip May 2012 Date & time: 11/05/2013 at 10:00 Details: Open invite trip to Mel Fferna. Moel Fferna is a spectacular mine with plenty to explore and photograph. The entrance pitch will be rigged for SRT and with an electron ladder. So whilst not strictly an SRT trip you'll need to be happy climbing up and down an electron (wire) ladder whilst lifelined.

Posted: 30/03/2013 22:54:53 Reply | Quote On another forum, it's was stated that Moel Fferna was "probably the most litter ridden hole I've ever had the misfortune to set foot in". I've not been for a good few months, but either it's gone very bad, very quickly, or it's being exagerrated. To be on the safe side, if I bring some bags, can we make an effort to pick up anything that we see that shouldn't be there? I'll volunteer to figure out how to get it up and out, and dispose of it properly. -- In your mines, Taking your pictures... Searching for the ever elusive Underground Titty Bar. IP: 86.149.177.248 |

You still need SRT or Electron ladders to get in and out but the bottom 12 feet or so used to be a right pain and made it very slow to get a group out. IP: 2.126.253.92 |

Posted: 02/04/2013 17:50:44 Reply | Quote It's a shaft of around 40 feet depth, but the bottom 10 to 15 feet are done on a solid (not an electron), metal, ladder. So you need to abseil / electron down around 30 feet and climb down the remainder on the fixed ladder. IP: 95.147.205.125 |
