Wave 1 went into paella up Mongol Rally. Wave 2 arrived just in time to pule a
paella from top Mongol Rally to start of crawl. Then third pull through the crawl
and across the big wet hole to the top of Hangmans. Very impressive to watch! A
fourth pull took us to the base of Honeycomb from were we heard wave 3. The ropes
were bagged and caver dispatched to the entrance. Pete, Corin and I assisted
Ruairidh to derig from base Honeycomb to the entrance, exiting ~10pm.
Only ropes left in were up pitches (i.e. start of Leeds Bypass). Delighted to be
met by Nat and Sarah at the entrance with cake + custard. Then delighted by the
crazy carry back to camp. De-reflectered as we went. All in all, a good job, well
done.
