Team Fiesta arrived in the previous evening, comprising Nick and Julian, so a new saga starts here :

Helicopter up to the plateau and abseiled down. Found 110, see sketch. Six teeth dropped off my anchor ! Huh ! substandard subb ... mumble.... Time 2 hrs. Oh, yes, I forgot, we had to do some digging to get in. Then :

Found 111, 30m to narrow rift which got too tight/choked, shaft split 20m down to shaft half full of snow. [] I suspect that there is a sentence about 112 missing here ]

Both last two shafts are close to 98.

Back at car by 7.15, helicopter never turned up. Nick.
