<div class="triptitle">Balkonhole - GOING DOWN ON GRENDAL'S MOTHER</div>
I HATE 8MM ROPE. it cannot be called rope as it stretches far too much with a big person with 2 tackle bags.
anyways. me and becka went camping in balkon and on the first day we went down the cave and excavated the mongal rally crawl and then went to camp. we then went to jono's lead from last year which was tight and interesting. it goes and we surveyed it and derigged, it probably goes to floodland and the bottom of mongal rally. the next day Luke made it to camp and we left to go down on grendals mother. getting to Tartarus (torturous) was easy and we soon were on the slopes to charon (muddy) we then got to the 8mm which i found very sad. after this we hit the pushing front which was a WET chamber. from here i bolted along the rift and then went down the pitch which lead to a bouldery chamberish thing. through the loose boulders we got to another pitch down to a sandy floor. walking along this lead to another big pitch (payne train( she had tricked me and becka into coming on the trip))

at the bottom of this pitch we had a conflab and agreed that we were the only people stupid enough to come back here to derig. the end was a tight scrotty thing but the leads contiued partway down the pitch.
so we derigged the lead and grendals mother. (I HATE 8MM ITS SO SHIT) the muddy slopes were very interesting with big bags . it's rigged as far mas the 10m pitch at the end of the muddy slopes. eventully we reached Tartarus (torturous)and then began some interesting srt.
srt with no working jammers is interesting. eventually i got to the top with no working velco (this made me sad). the mud was extensive and made any action painful especially removing ones foot from ones footloop. (I HATE MUD). (i hate tartarus).
<p>
we got back to the horizontal stuff and spent a slightly enteratining hour getting back to camp. dinner was GOOD.
leaving camp the next day was interesting. i spent 4 hours leaving the cave and once on honeycomb my croll decided to wear through the top of the front plate of my croll. the sharp edge was shaving some rope so careful srt was required. as i was caving on my own the only words that exited my mouth were swearwords on many pitches. eventually i hit sunlight and got back to topcamp and met becka who was very keen to get down the hill.
