Homecoming - Second Coming Derig

Sat 03 Aug 2024
Dickon

While the second coming of Christ will probably be quite exciting and very much not inevitable as far as your average atheist is concerned, the same cannot be said for the derigging of the Second Coming.

Enthusiasm was surprisingly high at the entrance but had mostly been extinguished once the actual derigging commenced. Harry did a heroic job derigging the shockingly dangerous traverses beyond Swiss Cheese and we each headed out with a sizeable bag (Colin took two because he's young and 'ard).

The positive outcome of the trip was the realisation that the traverses may well have been unnecessary in the first place as the rift that passes through Swiss Cheese drops a short distance to a pleasant descending canyon which will probably connect to the base of Salamander Queen.
