[svn r5797] All this bloody mess now validates as XHTML 1.0 Strict. What's more, some of the obviously out of date bits have been updated, or at least notes written to warn people that the information is out of date. I couldn't be arsed to do the surveying guide as well. I've just spent about eight hours doing this, I need food!

<h1>Cambridge University Caving Club
Expedition Handbook</h1>
<p>The pages which make up this handbook were originally based on the paper
documents you might find lying around the Potato Hut or Top Camp.
Increasingly, the web pages are becoming the master documents. They don't
tell you everything you need to know about Expo, but there is a basic minimum
here, with links to more detailed info when you need it.

<p>There are more sections each year, though only three are anything like

<dt><a href="look4.htm">Prospecting</a><dd>The prospecting guide is essential
reading before you wander the plateau stumbling across holes of potential
interest. Vast amounts of work have been wasted in the past through
inadequate recording. It isn't very much extra work, but ensures that your
hard work gains some recognition in the future rather than making lots of
tedious work and the cursing of your name... There is a separate page with
pictures of surface landmarks for <a href="findit.htm">taking bearings</a>,
and a new guide to getting a <a href="survey/gps.htm">GPS fix</a>.

significant (ie. anything which requires getting changed or rigging), it
needs good documentation. This is mostly a matter of doing a cave survey, a
guidebook description and usually a surface survey. The first time you go to
explore a poorly documented question mark, you will realise how important
this is, and it also makes for having a pretty survey on your wall to support
your bullshit. For 1998, the surveying guide has been split into easily
digestible chunks, including pages specifically intended for people who
<a href="survey/what.htm">haven't surveyed before</a>.

what to do ? Not a happy prospect, is it - so in the hope that it is
<b>not</b> you who gets hurt, we suggest you read this <b>now</b> so you know
what to do. It may well help you if it <b>is</b> you who gets injured, and
may even help prevent that from happening. So don't skip it !

leaders, a few odd things got forgotten, like envelopes for survey notes. One
of the good things they invented was an annual suggestions file for making
things better next time. One of the suggestions was a handbook section
telling them what to do! We hope that this checklist will become useful for
"experienced" leaders as well as vital guidance for anyone new to the job.
However, <b>do not rely on it being complete</b>, at least, not yet.

<p>Wookey demonstrating the technique of drilling a hole for an anchor with
the Bosch cordless rotary hammer drill. Note that he is using both hands on
the drill, so must be securely wedged in place using feet and/or the rope.
Since it was given to CUCC in
<a href="../../years/1990/sponsr.htm">Sponsorship</a> in 1990, the power
drill has proved particularly useful on pitches where many rebelays are
needed, and especially on bolted climbs or traverses such as
"<a href="../../smkridge/161/l/3wisea.htm">Three Wise Men</a>". The
drill was in such demand for this type of rigging that a second one
was bought (and a third may be borrowed...)

Note that there is little slack in the rope above the rebelay, though there
is no doubt that a lot will appear once the rope is loaded. This is something
to watch out for on the descent: when the slack disappears as the upper rope
is unloaded, it is possible to find that you can't remove your descender from
the rope without attaching an ascender to re-load it.

<p>To overcome this limitation, and try to stop losing caves in which we have
invested effort, CUCC now applies its own unique number to each new cave,
ideally at the time of discovery, using a rock anchor and a tag which can be
replaced when an 'official' number tag is available. This means that the cave
can be identified when refound, even if no-one who knew where it was came out

practice has been to allocate inital numbers of the form "year-nn", e.g.
2003-01. This means that the cave can be identified when refound, even if
no-one who knew where it was came out in subsequent years. Clearly, a good
surface location is also pretty essential.</p>
<p>As of 1996, there is a single set of tags with a four digit number on
each. The first two digits are the year, the second two are just a serial
number. This stops duplicate numbering, but is not ideal. In future, the
intended format is &lt;year&gt; &lt;discoverer's initials&gt; &lt;serial
number&gt; eg. "CUCC1999AD04". This has it's own problems (eg. needing to
make many more tags than will actually be used, or to carry the means to make
tags on the plateau), and has not really been taken up. Anything longer
than 10m needs a number, a survey of appropriate accuracy, and location

CUCC's photography today is about as good as its surveying 10 years ago.
Writing "how to do it" guides and ranting at people seems to have caused a
lot of progress on the surveying front, so we clearly need such a guide for
expo photography.

<p>Since the above paragraphs were written, there has been a vast increase in
the prevalence of digital cameras. Unfortunately as these are even more
expensive than their film counterparts people are exceedingly unwilling to take
them underground. Hence underground photography has been rather thin on the
ground of late; we desperately need more photos of the further reaches of
Steinbr&uuml;ckenh&ouml;hle, for example.</p>
<h3>What needs doing in the future ?</h3>
<p>A number of photographs specifically illustrating topics in the Expedition
Handbook would be useful. We would prefer that this involved a practice
rescue in Yorkshire rather than a real one in Austria. Likewise, a bit of
photography during a practice survey trip would be good. Another topic,
on which we have neither words nor pictures, would be expedition rigging.

<p>Some cavers in recent years have had some success with pocket-size digital
cameras. These are much more delicate than a film camera, but vastly smaller

supplant film cameras for 'artistic' photography with fifteen different
flashguns in enormous chambers, but they have the vast advantage of allowing
you to see on the spot if you've taken a completely blank exposure. They are

anything you find without worrying overmuch about quality: any photos are
better than no photos.</p>
<p><b>Flash:</b> You can get more light from a bulb flash than electronic,

Bulbs cost a lot more per flash than an electronic gun, and are less reliable

<center><h1>Rigging Pitches in Austria</h1></center>
<p>Rigging pitches in Austria is a little different from rigging on a typical
vertical trip in Yorkshire. For a start, the pitch may remain rigged for a
whole expedition, so consideration has to be given not just to avoiding water
in current conditions, but under much wetter conditions during a thunderstorm
on the surface. The extra traffic on a rope over several weeks and the
general sharpness of the rock mean that rubs must be even more assiduously
avoided, and ropes checked for damage on each descent. Loose rock is much
more of a hazard on pitches which have seen little or no traffic, and natural
belays may be scarce or absent. On virgin pitches, new bolts must be placed
in the hard rock, whilst on previously explored pitches, old anchors must be
found and their safety assessed before screwing in new hangers.
<p>Often, new pitches will be rigged "quick and dirty" for a first descent to
see if they go anywhere, and then must be rigged to a much higher standard on
a subsequent descent if exploration is to proceed beyond. Rerigging is also
needed if the rope originally used was much too long or too short, as is
frequently the case when descending unknown pitches.

<p>cvs works by maintaining DIFFerences between files as they are updated.
This works on text files, and cvs can convert the line-ending conventions
on different platforms. If you add a binary file, that sort of translation
can be extremely bad news, so use "-kb" to tell cvs when adding a binary
file:
file:</p>
<TT>cvs add -kb expo/plateau/others/505.png</TT>

<p>Whenever you do a "cvs commit" you will be asked for a log message, which
is just some text to help others know what sort of update you were doing.
So something like "correcting typos" or "added new passages off Puerile
Humour", "fixing broken links" are the minimum sort of level you need to
add. It is a good idea to commit files back to the repository one or two
at a time, so the comments can be relevant to each particular file. It
is often worth while committing unrelated changes separately, even if
they affect the same file. For instance, if you correct some typos in one
page, and link a new photo to several pages, including that same one, it
is better to commit each set of changes separately. This does take some
discipline, however, as it is usually just whilst you are making one set of
changes that you notice the typo, and if you don't change it then and there,
it gets forgotten. Your call.

<p>Of course, if you did some major overhaul to a lot of files (like changing
lots of links after some sort of reorganisation) you'd want to commit them
all together with a suitable log message. It really is a good idea to

<h3>Avoiding cocks-up</h3>
<p>Running cvs update just before you start editing saves you making changes to
out-of-date stuff, and committing changes soon after editing saves everyone
else from working on out-of-date pages. Both of which will save you work
