if it seems more reasonable but make sure it covers what you need: expedition potholing with ropes in
unexplored caves, helicopter rescue, repatriation to the UK,
adequate reimbursement of costs incurred in coping with accident (clothing cut off a broken leg, for example).
The policy option you need (in 2018 - check for the current year!) for Snowcard is
<a href="https://www.snowcard.co.uk/activity-levels/max-adventure">"Max Adventure"</a>
which covered "original cave exploration in an area which has "organised local cave rescue". This does not seem to be available in 2019.

<a href="https://www.snowcard.co.uk/activity-levels/extreme-adventure">"Extreme Adventure"</a>

Snowcard insurance is not available for people who are not &quot;normally resident&quot; in the UK. The BCA also has cave rescue insurance (which covers many other non-caving activities) for similar rates as Snowcard. It is very difficult to find out whether other, general travel insurance policies actually covers expedition caving. Some have complete exclusions for, say "potholing and climbing which normally requires guides or ropes", some are less explicit.
