<p>My last chance of being underground for a few days so I was even keener than usual.It took 1h20min to get
|
||||||
|
to the bottom of Mongol Rally.
|
||||||
|
<p>George rigged Littleboy pitch which dropped us into a round chamber where we started he survey
|
||||||
|
+ we headed off into 20m wide phreas once we'd spotted the moushole leading off. Implausibly there
|
||||||
|
werenomoreobstacles for hundreds of metres whilst George's brain frazzled trying to keep up with
|
||||||
|
the boulder drawing + my splays.
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
Eventually we got to a thin rift that blowed a gale where, after some furtling, we foundan easy climb
|
||||||
|
down... and a survey cairn! We found two other old stations (one numbered) so surveyed between them whilst
|
||||||
|
George got moody because his cave had been absorbed.
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
We headed back to Littleboy pitch to tie in the survey but spotted a side lead just before the
|
||||||
|
chamber and ran through some fast,staight, long legs there until we got to a wet pitch. We were oh so close
|
||||||
|
to a kilometer in the book/PDA so, rather than wrapping up at 6pm when we made the connection,
|
||||||
|
a 8.30pm colem(?) we tied int he survey we tidied up the area at the final ledge of Mongol Rally
|
||||||
|
tomake it 100m (albeit with a dodgy, cheeky leg or two).
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
On the way out we drank at the pool on Piystop as I was losing it with dehydration
|
||||||
|
- it's dry, dry, dry in Floodland (of course). It took 2.5h out and we
|
||||||
|
were on the surface at 01.30 to a full moon.

I found my second descent of Balkony to be easier than the first. Becka and Luke
|
||||||
|
headed down aghead of George and I to Pitstop to survey that aven while George and I
|
||||||
|
surveyed the rest of Mongol Rally,
|
||||||
|
starting at the ledge we ahd previously bolted and surveyed to.
|
||||||
|
<p>
|
||||||
|
We stopped at Pitstop so I could eat a Fitness bread and cheese while George said how terrible
|
||||||
|
Fitness bread was.
