Hi folks,

This weeks trip is to the wonderful Poachers Cave for a newbie who with a bit of persuasion, will soon be a member.
We may do the lower series as well if we have time (we need to leave some tempting bits for them).

MEET TIME: 7PM
MEET POINT: Bridge car park opposite the caravan park at the bottom of Pantymywyn/Cilcain. Sat nav/phone users, Ty Bont Caravan park, CH7 5NJ.

EQUIPMENT: Caving suit/overalls, wellies/boots, gloves, helmet and lamp. change of clothes.

Can somebody please ensure there is an electron available to use.

Regards, Steve.

You're never late with a V8, sadly I do not own a V8!

I have got a Jeep nowadays (traded my Berlingo in just after Christmas) but anyone with a two-wheel drive will be at a disadvantage.

Hope you've got snow chains as it sounds like you are volunteering to pull everyone up the hill.

DaveT OFFLINE Posts: 326 Thank you received: 147	Think I will pass on this one. The car struggled to get up a minor icy slope last night - modern vehicles with wide tyres are a pain in the arse in icy weather. Need winter tyres or 4x4 on hill up from the bridge. or a winch LOL Dave

Neddy82 OFFLINE Posts: 194 Thank you received: 86	I will be out with a newbie. I have not had chance to sort an electron out due to car issues. We can see what the hill is like and if need be we can always choose another place which is easier for car access.
