Notes

This was the wild cat rift pitch attempt, I still have not been there since this trip. I should bring my drill and see about dropping these again.

4 of us ambled up to Bar Pot, me and Alex went down (the tackle free) Stile Pot whilst John and Dan went down Bar, once inside we were soon on the short traverse round the edge of the big pitch, through a short thrutch and on to the traverse to SE Aven (looks like a nice pitch) – we carried on over that into a muddy crawl (our aim was Wild Cat Rift).

I stopped at a corner due to getting stuck, mud was like glue, arms outstretched was possibly not a good move, for me anyway! Alex went through followed by Dan, John had given up a little further back. Alex & Dan got shit up some more reaching a pitch before retreating.

John and Dan went out Stile (slightly harder exiting) whilst me and Alex exited Bar. An alternative day out in this interesting pothole.
