Notes

We decided to use rope rather than a ladder as everyone had an SRT kit. Byron was not too scared of this but was of the holes one crawls over a little further on, he was visibly shaking for a while. We then continued to go downstream first, where I guess we probably should have stopped at the main chamber but, I thought that would be too boring. I had forgotten about most of the climbs but everyone did fine. However, only me and Jason went through the squeezes to get as far as the bottom pitch, Jason is pretty hard. We then went upstream, through nice passage. Me and Jason bypassed the so-called up pitch by a squeeze in the stream. I then returned and put a hand-line down for Rob who more likes climbing than squeezes. Byron waited as tired, though had a few goes at the stream level route apparently We then went as far upstream as the ducks.
