<div class="triptitle">plateau - Mendip Man & Silver Moth</div>
We set off to the fishface gear strone on a fine sunny day. I was promised some proper mendip esc horizpntal passages, exactly what I came to expo for.
Kai showed me into mendip man, past the dollop of snow on the rather impressive entrance and set off down boulder and rock rubble, [?] crawling passage.
At a junction we began to survey a descent lead to the right.
I was on disto and kai on book.
The passage was low and surveying was pretty tight.
We surveyed on and the passage gently descened with a few turns and low squeezes and a junction half way on the right.
In the roof loweres and chokes out after about [left blank?] meters. The ceiling is decorated with tiny cloud and plume like blobs of calcite.
After the passage crapped out we pushed back and surveyed the junction to the right, [thce?] just lead round in a loop to earlier in the entrace passage.
Before going left at the first junction, I attepted to dig out a slope while Kai went for a piss.
The dig was fruitless and we proceeded on through a rather rude and grumpy low passage with a sea of offensive rocks oon the floor and pushed into a standing height chamber with boulders in the chamber.
There were 2 leads here.
The first was a small crawling passage, not quite flat out, this choked quickly and was fillled with bat poo and some form of fungus growing upon it.
The other lead was after a climb up through a squeeze.
Beyond the squeeze a 4m rift appeared human sized in width.
It seemed to lead to floor level and we didn't descend, it is still open lead but definitly a D lead and probably goes back to floor level.
We sureyed the rift and called it a day in mendip amn.
Without a good dig it doesn't appear to be going.
<p>
before heading to top camp, we checked out a hole luke found that needed digging just across from mendip man.
With energy low but the draft exciting we took turns to putt head sized boulders from the entrance until we surveryed through into a sitting height junction.
The route straight on chocked after 11 metres but to the right a strong draft and [?] great echo.
In a series of free climbable steps descending [40 ft? why mix imperial and metric????] to a 4 metre hole.
We decuded to calll the name silver moth as the passage had a lot of moths and took silver from the fact that luke found the hole.
With a great draft draft out of the hole we planned to return with a handline and a lot of psych [?] the rain in 2 days time.
