Two men and a cripple paid a visit to Gaping Gill on a cold and frosty morning. Descending Bar Pot we opted for the traverse around the big pitch, through the rift and a descent via South East Aven – a fine pitch indeed.
From here we headed to main chamber and up into Old East Passage. After a quick visit to a lesser known place we headed to Mud Hall before returning and making a speedy (albeit interspersed with some cave counselling) exit to the sunshine.
Alex however, keen on aggravating his knee injury, decided to take the “tiger” option to exit via Stile Pot.
