<h2 id="tophead">CUCC Expo Rigging Handbook</h2>
<h1>Rigging and Bolting Handbook</h1>
<p>As the <a href="intro.html">Rigging chat</a> emphasises, it's not the same as Yorkshire !
While much of the material will be familiar to those with extensive SRT
experience in the UK, there are factors unique to
expedition work, and techniques are very rarely seen at home...</p>

<hr />
<p>We do recommend you look at Sherry Mayo's <a
href="sherry-mayo.html">Rigging for alpine SRT
</a>. This is aimed at users in Australia, but is based on York
and Oxford (OUCC) practices in the Picos de Europa (N.Spain), which is in many
ways similar to Austria. </p>
<h3>Writing up your cave rigging guide</h3>
<p>At the same same as - or before - you draw up your survey notes for a new cave, you must sketch a rigging guide.
<p>It is essential that rigging
guides are drawn for any new rigging or rerigging each year so that we can add rigging
guides to the online cave descriptions.
<p>This write-up should be done by the person who did the rigging at the first available moment: usually this will be in the top-camp logbook.
<p>It's also essential for future years to
record any gear left <span lang="la">in situ</span>, so that we can keep the <a
href="../../fixaid.htm">Fixed Aids</a> list up to date.</p>
