<div class="triptitle">Hahaha Hohle - A Less Hopeful Day</div>
Planning for another day pushing Hahaha Hohle, we walked up to top camp in the morning to get our caving kit as we werent keen for the squeeze again without oversuits and we needed more bolts. Once kit was acquired we headed back down to the col and on to Hahaha Hohle, passing Philip with his drone on the way. We kitted up in the blazing sunshine but with a forecast of rain in the evening so we planned to turn around in good time.
<p>
We headed down to the pitch we had got up to the day before, and Hannah took over the rigging with guidance from Harry. Hamish, Lara and I followed on behind surveying. The pitch came down to a small stream and another short section of horizontal. There was a scary boulder slope of hanging death which the survey showed was directly below the boulder floored chamber above that we had just come from, which felt slightly unnerving. The way on led to another pitch series, which after dropping down a couple of small drops ended in a larger 20m hang. Hannah did some impressive splits getting a deviation bolt in on this.
<p>
At the bottom of this pitch, hopes were quickly dashed as we hit a 10m pitch into a sump. We had now hit our turn around time to avoid the rain, but now we were here we wanted to drop the pitch to the sump to confirm there were no ways on… this was sadly confirmed. We quickly finished the survey and turned around, aware that we may have pushed our luck with the weather. We derigged the final pitch but left the rest of the ropes in as there was one last hope of a traverse above the final pitch that we wanted to return to.
<p>
It turns out we had indeed pushed our luck and the final three of us up the entrance pitch got a good soaking and came out to heavy rain which made for soggy changing. We headed back down the hill once again.
