Homecoming - Hobnob Hallway

Sun 16 Jul 2023
Becka

Alice and Buck came from top camp with a drill, batteries, and hammer... but sadly no drill bits. We hoped we might meet the camping trip exiting and be able to take their drill bits so we took all the kit down but sadly didn't see them so Sarah rigged as far as she could without bolting but couldn't bottom the pitches. Meanwhile Alice and I surveyed 'Golden Goose' to finish centreline(station 901) and we then resurveyed down to Sarah's pitch (Survey name 'Goose box') because Frank and Nadia's data for this had disappeared... unlike their survey stations which we largely reused.The survey is now nearly to the pushing front. We looked at 2018-20B and it ends. The ready replaced, new red rope on Gromit is already worryingly not good after so few trips

Ends at an aven QMX about 20m beyond last survey station after m'10m of tight rift.
