<p>Adam Cooper in 1993, placing a bolt for a more thorough descent of "Lost
|
|
|
|
|
Rucksack Hole" on the plateau, after retrieving the eponymous Rucksack on a
|
|
|
|
|
ladder descent. A rapid initial exploratory descent followed by bolting for a
|
|
|
|
|
safer rig is a typical aspect of prospecting and shaft-bashing on the
|
|
|
|
|
plateau. This shaft, given number <a href="../../200.htm">1623/200</a>
|
|
|
|
|
remained unexplored below the surface shaft until 1998, when it was finally
|
|
|
|
|
bottomed in three trips; marked with a metal tag; and very definitely fixed
|
|
|
|
|
by GPS and surface survey. We won't be losing that one again, at least !
