A pleasant trip along Main Passage, checking out the interesting little bits going off at the end. Places checked were the North Wing terminal choke, an unnamed side passage (on two levels, both with digs) and the nicely sculptured stream passage of Ace of Spades inlet. The starts of Aven Series and Africa Passage were also located. It was Taylor’s first trip in Aggy, Kate’s first trip since giving birth and my first proper caving trip for many years! Apparently it rained lots when we were underground but we missed it completely as it was fine and dry again by the time we came out.

Time In – 11:10am    Time Out – 4:50pm     Duration – 5hrs 40mins (A bit more than the 3-4 hours I was hoping for on my first trip back!)
