<h1>Lancaster University Speleological Society</h1>
|
|
<p>LUSS, and its graduate offspring, the Society of Lancaster
|
|
University Graduate Speleologists (SLUGS), is based on campus in
|
|
Lancaster, within very easy reach of the Yorkshire Dales. Hence it
|
|
has become one of the more active clubs over the years, with young
|
|
cavers trained on weekends in Yorkshire travelling further afield
|
|
each summer. Best known for major explorations in the Picos de
|
|
Europa of Northern Spain, it has a reputation for high quality (if
|
|
infrequent) publication.</p>
|
|
<p>LUSS have their <a href=
|
|
"http://www.ednet.lancs.ac.uk/luss/index.html">own web pages</a>,
|
|
or may be contacted via their <a href=
|
|
"http://www.ednet.lancs.ac.uk/luss/contact.html">contact page</a>
|
|
or maybe directly through email. Their web page gives:<br /></p>

get a bounce from this address)</i></p>
|
|
<p>Lancaster University Speleological Society worked in an area out
|
|
to the north of CUCC's home turf, between Wildensee, Hohes
|
|
Augst-Eck and Gr. Scheibling Kogel, on three expeditions in 1987,
|
|
1988 and 1989. Some of the caves they explored lie within the 1623
|
|
area, although the boundaries between areas are not very
|
|
well-defined hereabouts.</p>
|
|
<p>The descriptions included in our pages are taken (with
|
|
permission, for which our thanks) directly from their reports,

published in the UK:</p>

|
|
<p>I only have an incomplete pre-publication report from 1989 (the
|
|
full report was never published), which means that there is no
|
|
description of the 1989 extensions to LA11 in these pages.</p>
|

<p>Copies of these reports (if still in print) are available

<p>(note that the Bailrigg campus Pigeon Holes address, given in
|
|
many LUSS publications and in old versions of this page, is now
|
|
unlikely to reach the Society).</p>
|
|
<p>As they <i>may</i> still be in print, these reports are not in
|
|
our web pages at present, though the descriptions of caves in 1623,
|
|
and the more significant ones in 1626 are. <b>Stoppress</b>: from
|
|
1999, some of this material is appearing on the LUSS website (see
|
|
link above). Expect the C&C 38 article to appear shortly, but
|
|
currently the link in LUSS's own index page is broken, so I don't
|
|
know the URL.</p>
