 | Digs: Robin Pot - The End? |
The squeeze was eventually enlarged by Chris and John
and they entered a chamber, unfortunately they couldn't see anything for the
fumes!
Three
days later the site was again visited by Phil Parker and Richard Glover from
Kendal. The source of the booming echo turned out to be an aven, rougly 2
metres square and 6 metres high. The way on was a choked bedding plane. As this
passage is heading straight for the confluence of the two streams at the head
of the valley, and not north as we had hoped, we will probably abandon the dig.
Phil
Parker aims to have one last visit after heavy rain to see where the stream we
could hear flows to.
I
will fill in the surface collapse in the next few weeks, leaving the the
shakehole entrance invisible from the footpath nearby.
Meanwhile
nearby at Compass Pot work continues at a snails pace due to lack of stacking
space for the spoil.
Phil
Ryder.
