<div class="triptitle">CUCC2018 DM07 (Homecoming Hole) - First push</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>Headed off to drop DM07 followed by DM06. Started with DM07 as the closer of the two.
|
|
First pitch/handline 5m down from surface to large hole in ground.
|
|
Into hole in wall, 1m down and 2m traverse over a drop of 3m leads to top of
|
|
snow plug that can be followed down 8m to passage. Crawl for 10m leads to
|
|
first pitch, 5m, closely followed by longer pitch (10m?) into a rather large chamber.
|
|
The way leading back against the direction of progress quickly chokes.
|
|
Way on leads to large boulder. A hole on the left side yields a safe continuation
|
|
(the rope also leads this way) on to the next pitch of another 10m into yet another chamber.
|
|
From here, an impressive pitch was observed(8m diameter) which a 27m rope was insufficient to
|
|
descend. Probably 40m deep. Strong draft, predicted by the majority of
|
|
CUCC to be larger than Tunnocks <i>[citation needed]</i>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Surveyed out of cave, tag left on small shelf right under surface level. Lack of pencils led to
|
|
ditching of DM06, though this is an interesting cave. DM06 still unexplored.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Jon sprained ankle before cave entrance, the effects of which showed up shortly after arrival to
|
|
top camp, and which subsided by the next day. Strange stuff which unfortunately led to me being
|
|
unable to push further the next day. :-(</p>

<div class="triptitle">2nd push in Heimkommen höhle (Homecoming)</div>
|
|
<p>Carried 2x 45m ropes and a 80m rope over to Heimkommen. Dickon rerigged the pitch then ran out of rope on,
|
|
now named Radagast.
|
|
<p>Pushed through a small meander to an up pitch (3m).
|
|
From there is was navigating a large meander,
|
|
dropping a pitch (5m) and traversing through some boulders. Another pitch (10m)
|
|
before a climb up and a traverse along the top of Wallace (40m)
|
|
which landed perfectly on a boulderabove an estimated 50m-100m drop, named Grommit.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Out of rope so we surveyed out.

<div class="triptitle">Shallow lead push - Homecoming</div>
|
|
|
|
<P>We set off from top camp,full of optimism for the day.
|
|
Nadias's ankle was sore from the previous trip, so we wanted to take the shortest route
|
|
to the cave to minimise stretch on it. With this in mind we set off along the path
|
|
which went via fish face.
|
|
|
|
<p>Arriving at fish face in good time we found another group
|
|
that were about to go underground.After a chat, we set off for Homecoming
|
|
with our glasses remaining half-full.
|
|
Without a GPS we weren't entirely sure how to get there,
|
|
but with morale high we were confident of bodging the way.
|
|
I had already got lost going from FGH to HC, surely it couldn't happen again.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Fast forward an hour or so we were standing on the side of a sharpsloping wall of a gully.
|
|
Looking in two different directions (our tone starting to resemble the
|
|
internal monologue of a child who's lost their mum in Asda).
|
|
We both said the same thing, 'I remember going this way'. After trialling the two options
|
|
we discovered, with sinking morale, that we were both wrong.
|
|
|
|
<p>My watch produce a nagging beep to signal mid-day;
|
|
another pin-prick in the already deflating balloon that was my confidence.
|
|
Our plan of action started to fragment;a staring chicken lost on a plane of fine brown gravel.
|
|
<p>'It might be this way' I wouldsay 'no, maybe it's this way'.
|
|
<p>Feeling a bit spent wedecided to rest. Over some flapjack crumbs we discussed
|
|
our plan of action.
|
|
<p>Setting off again, our plan A, B and C ready to go.
|
|
We had at last cometoterms with our situation.
|
|
<p>Bags on we walked around the bunde that had provided shelter for our break, a cairn, two, three,
|
|
the familiar path to Homecoming.
|
|
<br /><br />
|
|
<p>With regards to the cave, we swung into the window at the top of Gromit, bolted the
|
|
pitch Anthony had startedthe day prior.
|
|
It lead into two continuations; one horizontal, one vertically down. We crapped out the horizontal
|
|
and left the other labelled as a QMB. Reason being: it's clean washed, and it looks like it will connect to cave already found below.

<ul>
|
|
<li>Surveyed Hobnob Hallway until mud/sand slope.
|
|
went over fals floor very unstable needs a traverse line. Was crumbling as we walked on it.
|
|
|
|
<li>Under false floor is a trickle of water leading to a wet pitch Q.M.C.
|
|
<li>Found side passage at the bottom of a mud slope on the left. Keyhole passage that connects
|
|
into Dickon's passage,currently unnamed.
|
|
<li>Heard flood pulse, while surveying, when we went out all ropes were dry except the very bottom
|
|
of Radagast pitch. No issue with pitches being impassable except maybe Radagast.

<div class="triptitle">Homecoming - shallow level</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Having elected not to camp in Tunnocks the night before,Luke and I had a bonus extra day's caving.
|
|
I wasnotin the moodfor anything too epic after emerging at 2am;
|
|
a trip to a shallow level in Homecoming sounded like just the job.
|
|
<p>
|
|
Ladened with all out gear we set off following Frank who confidently asserted
|
|
that he had followed a cairned path back from the cave via Fischgesicht the day before.
|
|
It rapidly became apparent that these caves were a figment of Frank's imagination,
|
|
so the stetch beyond Fischgesicht wasnavigated by GPS and involved much bunde bashing.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The cave itself looks like the real deal,and we quickly found ourway to the lead in a pleasant,
|
|
small phreatic passage.
|
|
Equipment-wide the trip was a mixture ofancient and modern: Frank and Luke went off
|
|
surveying in full paperless mode with a DistoX and PDA,
|
|
whilst I had to hand-bolt a pitch.
|
|
I even used a clown out of choice rather than necessity.
|
|
By the time Luke and Frank had finished surveying, I had descended to a ledge
|
|
with a couple of ways on - later to become 'Snagged & Shagged'
|
|
when revisited by Nadia and Adam.
|
|
<p>
|
|
Out nice and early, suckered Frank into walking back
|
|
to Top Camp via the bivi cave on the flank of the Kleine Wildkogel. At a mere
|
|
50 mins longer in time than our route to the cave, this would go down
|
|
as a less-than-successful short-cut.

<li>Swung into shallow leads followed down past 5m pitch/climb, under crawl, turn left.

found 2 rifts, followed first toan aven, followed second until tight, vertical connection to first rift.
|

<li>Went back up to rock bridge and dropped right side to deeper lead.
|

Added a deviation off a natural above the bridge. At the floor to the right

was pitch ~20m. Clean-washed and dripping QMB (QM1). De-rigged and left.

Not sure howeffective it will be. Added deviationon third pitch off

<div class="triptitle">Homecoming Hobnob Hallway</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>We walked to Homecoming through Fishface cairning the route with Haydon,Jon, Ruairidh, Phil and Typhon
|
|
filling in the gaps.Making it a fully cairned route.
|
|
Went down the hobnob hallway added a handline over the false floor using a thread.
|
|
Should be made into a traverse
|
|
with a bolt on the other side of the false floor.
|
|
We put a handline on the sand slope using a thread at the top.
|
|
<p>
|
|
We carried on down the rift to the first junction on a boulder.
|
|
The left has not been explored yet. We went right past
|
|
the water downa tight rift. It opened into a pitch 13m.
|
|
We turned around there. On the way back Frank saw a lead behind
|
|
the wet bit. Way out took longer than anticipated.

<div class="triptitle">Homecoming Lizard King</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>A series of 4 trips bolting the Lizard King which is a rift with a strong draft
|
|
in Homecoming Hole (CUCC-2018-DM07).
|
|
Reached by doing traverse 10m over floor of Gromit, and taking right/(straight ahead) (not left)
|
|
at the first junction.
|
|
<p>A series of more or less exciting traverses lead to a phreatic maze with a large phreatic tube
|
|
over a major rift around it.
|
|
We bolted against the draft, using a 50m rope for the first section, ending on a small
|
|
ledge (3m pitch).
|
|
A further (more exciting) traverse along the top of the rift continues to the right
|
|
until a sudden end after 15 min.
|
|
<p>A 40m (?) pitch (1 dev, 2 rebelays) drops into a large muddy rift.
|
|
From a ledge, a 4-bolt traverse pushed the continuation against the draft,into a further
|
|
(larger) rift that would require bolting.
|
|
<p> Further leads in the opposite direction or further down the rift (BIG RIFT!).
|
|
Alternatively the opposite direction of the phreatic tube from the Lizard King.
|
|
Lotsof bolting, were were very cold.
|
|
Haydon says he was a 2 on a 1-10 scale where 1 is frozen solid.I was also very cold.
|
|
In other words, an altogether excellent pushing front with a brilliant windchill effect.
