Becka, Luke, Wookey
Kaninchenhoehle - Natural Way to leads in Enniskill
The 6am start failed to materialise as the rain kept going. Eventually we hauled ourselves up and tried to muster some stoke. Becka fashioned a survival bag over-kagoule cape which was quite effective, whilst Lara went for a bin bag over-trousers skirt which, with an indecent slit, also kept the worst off. We fought over less drippy patches in the changing area then descended the entrance pitch with kags, double hoods and no gloves (to keep them dry for the rest of the trip). Entrance shaft was wet but safe. 3.5 hours to the start of this year's finds. Luke gave me a tour of the chamber - both impressive in scale and some lovely features. Then off to a series of leads that we rapidly dispatched. The first ended in 3 legs, the next, up a 3m free climb, in about a dozen legs down phreatic crawling. Wookey was keen to be completist and descend the small, wet, modern pitch there but Luke and I vetoed him given its low prospects and our paltry 5 thru bolts (50% of the available supply at Top Camp ... though many more turned up the next day during the massive sort out). We then went to the leads that Lara and Ash had taken and found them just starting one. We set off on the other lead, past Loch Gosser. This led down a steep, muddy phreatic ramp and was looking promising until, in a few short legs I spotted a flash of light ahead. Darn, we'd connected in to the others. We backtracked on our lead to tick off a QMB and QMC we'd left, neither went. We then caught up with the others and caused mayhem as we milled around them in crawly passage. This shortly led to a canyon and, next to it, a short pitch. We went back to fetch our drill etc. On returning Lara and Ash, cold from draughty surveying, headed out, having not taken up Luke's offer of slithering down the pitch then having him bolt their exit. Wookey rigged the muddy p4 down to larger, attractive walking phreas. By now we were also cold and it was gone 6pm but it did look good so we fired off a few legs until we got to another short pitch, under 10m. We still had 2 thru bolts but our remaining rope was too short. We headed home in 4.5 hours including derigging the disgustingly muddy Strange Downfall rope. Out up a dryish entrance pitch at 23.30 to a dry night, hoorah. @@ -2141,189 +2141,189 @@ The precious things are listed below.
