"text": "From topcamp we have a late morning due to our late return last night, and arrive at KH and are kitted up at around 12pm.\n<p>\nAfter a short walk we reach the start of Young Men at roughly 2:30pm, and decide to begin by killing leads, \n<p>\nC - Lead, side squeeze -> craps out after 5/8m.\n<p>\nB - Lead, out drafting stooping/crawling passage -> 30/50m to a drafty dig (probably only need hands, i want to try this when we de-rig).\n<p>\nThen moved on to our junction with 3 A/B leads (after some tidying up)\n<p>\nWe started with the B - Lead, drafting crawl into a chamber\n<p>\nThe chamber had 3 passages off and a rifty aven that may go. Two of these passages converged after a few meters \nand had the sound of running water coming from them, and the last was sloped downwards to a muddy crawling \npassage. We went in the direction of water first.\n<p>\nThis passage reached a wet down climb (C - Lead?), a wet up climb (C - Lead?) and a muddy squeeze (C - Lead (Ash \nmay have put it as a dig but that is wrong as i have already dug it enough to get through)) after a few 10s of \nmeters.\n<p>\nGoing back to the chamber we head in the other direction, after a while of muddy crawling and a dead end or two \nwe reach a wet pitch with not great rock, (A-Lead?). I believe Ash wants to go back to drop this one.\n<p>\nFinally, we go back to the original junction.\nAsh is getting a bit cold and so he decides to rush back down CfYM to warm up and get a bite of flapjack, while I scoop a bit of the less promising A - Lead (downwards walking passage, drafting in)\n<p>\nIts 20-30m and ends in a wet washed 8m down pitch and a traverse around to the side (both killed on our next trip).\n<p>\nAsh then gets back, we survey it and head out.\n<p>\nOn our walk to top camp from KH, we seem to spot one of those orange tents \u26fa\ufe0f lit up on the hill over on the plateau and think its strange.\n<p>\n5 minutes later i realise how stupid we are and that it is the moon.\n<p>\nArriving back at top camp at 1am",
