Caving - Singing River Mine
Tim and I arrived at Shipham Green at 18:45 - Richard and two others were already down the cave so we headed on in. We descended the entrance shaft and made our way to Singing River chamber, we took the passage on the left and found Richard on their way out!! We left our SRT kits and continued on to explore the West Series and the Stream Galleries first. Back to collect our kit and have a play at SRT - Tim rigged the pitch above the "Stinking Gulf" and I had a play with my new chest harness and with Richard's Pantin. We then took a diversion to the other side of the Gulf and made our way to the Great Hall. The water level was very high so we did not go into the Great Hall - we climbed up on to a higher level and had a good view of the watery chamber! We exited the cave about 21:30 and set off to find Richard at Blagdon club to return his kit.
