Originally I was meant to be doing a shallow lead to rescue Isaac's descender. Hence I walked up in the morning from base with Todd Aila and Isaac. At the entrance the watershed de-rigging team were down a harry who was feeling very sorry for himself due to not being very well. So I asked to come with the de-rigging team wanting to be beasted at least once and see what all the fuss of a homecoming bounce trip was like.

I clipped the tackle bags we were abandoning in favour of speed to the pitch head so they wouldn't be lost for ever if the waters rose and then blasted it out of the cave following the others rapid pace. Getting up flowstone canyon was good fun but stressful and that made me cook trying to keep up with the others who were trying to warm up. After the sound of water pitch I tried to take my under-suit off where I was told not to even though I was on the way to heat exhaustion which was ironic when there were 3 other nearly hypothermic cavers. I did say "I'm to hot" a few too many times although I did offer to trade under-suits which was rejected. In one of the many crawls I couldn't actually see anything other than a mist in front of my face as the others were drying out and I was seating and panting reducing visibility to a couple of meters which would have been really cool in a different circumstance.

Following Liam up watershed who did a lot of angry swearing to get up some of the climbs I was exhausted and hot. My shoulders were starting to build up lactate from all of the pressing I was doing along this rift. Lara went up strained by gravity first as she was the coldest I followed up quickly so that she could take some of my excess body heat. I topped out to a very cold Lara asking if I could sit very close to her to warm her up which she seemed really guilty about which was ironic as she was doing me a favour of stopping me getting heat exhaustion. Once the others were up we caved individually out of the cave being chased by Chi's d&b, very cool experience that. The gauntlet had become much wetter on our way out actually requiring a run to avoid a soaking. We exited for 2am and walked to garlic to find a very relieved Harry where we could tell stories of daring doo and near death.
