Notes

We went and looked at some passages on our side of the Howling, including one up an old rope that had been there 20 years. None of us fancied ascending this! We dropped down a couple of short pitches with Chris bolting to look for ways on near the Howling. We didn’t find anything new here. next, we looked at holes in the floor and found quite a bit of unsurveyed passage at stream level below the main passage, including a lead down a short undescended pitch, which we have left for now.
