Exploring

Matt, one of our instructors and myself went off to explore a new venue with the possibility of taking groups there. This trip involves 4 abseils and a variety of crawling which enables you to go down through an old lead mine.  You enter the mine via an open rift  at the top and work your way down to pop out the bottom tunnel.

It proved to be a great trip and one we are defiantly going to take certain groups down when we get the opportunity.  So much potential here in N Wales.

Mining adventure North Wales

Matt jumaring ( Mechanical clamps used to ascend the ropes )  back up the ropes at the end of the trip. On this occasion we left fixed ropes in on all the abseils and used them to climb back out the mine.
