<h1>Expedition 1980</h1>
<h4>If you ever find this logbook, then for fuck's sake make N photocopies
and send me one before it disappears for another 15 years :-( Andy</h4>
The following details are reconstructed from various sources, and do not
pretend to be complete - they are almost all concerned with Stellerweg:
<p><a id="id1980-41-1">July 30th</a> Andy W and Budge into 41 and find (quite
by accident) a new way on. TU 3&frac12; hrs
<p><a id="id1980-41-2">July 30th</a> Steve Perry and Julian Griffiths form
wave 2 in 41 and explore to greasy ladder pitch above Big Pitch in 41.
<p><a id="id1980-41-3">July 31st</a> Steve and Julian 15m down Big Pitch,
before being thwarted by light failure.
<p><a id="id1980-41-4">August 2nd</a> Julian and Nick Thorne bottom Big
Pitch and reach start of small pitches in 41.
<p><a id="id1980-41-5">August 2nd</a> Clive Owen and Tim Parker fail to reach
pushing front in 41 owing to mishap on Big Pitch.
<p><a id="id1980-41-6">August 3rd</a> Nick and Budge go to check "obvious"
way on to German Route in 41.
<p><a id="id1980-41-7">August 4th</a> Julian and Nick Thorne push down the
pitches in 41's German Route.
<p><a id="id1980-41-8">August 5th</a> Ben and Steve push to the feasible
end of German Route in 41
<p><a id="id1980-41-9">August 6th</a> Clive and Julian get down small pitches
in 41 to start of Big Rift.
<p><a id="id1980-41-10">August 8th</a> Steve and Julian have to retreat in
haste from sudden flood pulse at top of Big Rift in 41.
<p><a id="id1980-41-11">August 10th</a> Ben and Steve push on in 41 Big Rift.
<p><a id="id1980-41-12">August 11th</a> Andy W and Julian survey 41 from Big
Pitch to Big Rift, whilst Steve and Tim push Big Rift down two 17m pitches.
TU 12&frac12;-13 hrs
<!-- you can split that to -12a and -12b if it is two write-ups in log -->
<p>There were at least six trips into 115, but the dates are impossible
to deduce without finding the log book. The correct way on to the Ramp
was only found on the derigging trip.
<p>1981 log is missing, so there is as yet no link to the 1981 rigging in
trip in 41, nor 115. 41 has never been rigged since by CUCC (though much has
been and is being done by the Arge group from Stuttgart with whom we
cooperate).
