First headed to Goesser Streamway. I started placing a bolt for the next pitch but my hand was playing up so Pete did most of the work. Unfortunately when I passed the spits and cones pots along the traverse line to him the string broke, so that was all the bolting we did. (Still had cones, but no spits). From our bolt one can descend ~15m to a very small ledge, from which the vast scale of the shaft around the corner is annoyingly clear. One for next year.

After derigging Goesser I suggested we amble over to Choc Salty Balls and do a linking survey to sort out the mis-linked Fingerbang survey. Did this and headed to Crowning Glory. There is lots there - a horizontal passage, draughting, intersecting avens at intervals. I did a slightly bonkers climb up a slab into continuing passage. Turned around and surveyed out from 20m beyond there due to lack of time but there is lots of potential there.

T/U: 9h
