1987-02 - Surface and Shaft
Jenny Black
Walked up to Laser 0/5 and had a look for 1987-02. Scrambled up the
hill for a way and didn't see any horizontal entrances. Got fairly near
the crest of the ridge, so headed back down by a different route. Olly
spotted a draughting out shaft which we numbered 2007-7[MISSING],
GPS[MISSING]. Carried on down and got to a hidden valley with a low
horizontal entrance with a HUGE out draft. Walked inside and got some
big passage going straight on and right, both of which led to pitches.
Reading the old logbook suggests this must be 1987-02 (from the U/G and
entrance location descriptions).
Surface surveyed this to Laser 0/5/
Oh, in the morning had a look at another new entrance (that has
probably been seen before). Collapsed valley entrance with a couple of
leads, one might go but not without an oversuit & kneepads. Second lead
is a crawling / stooping phreatic passage for ~10m till it chokes. This
is 2007-7[MISSING] GPS[MISSING]
