Notes

We found Needlenose quite easily despite it being buried under rocks, we explored all the side passages we could, but still did not manage to explore some of the cave, as we did not find the bypass to the crawl. We then moved onto Shale cave, which Don did not like as much as me, but I enjoyed the 4 wonders (water hole, strange formations, dark orange stals and two streams one passage). Was very cold by the end and needed to spend some time in the sauna.
