I may be able to get a trip or two down Shatter cave. It is a leader only cave of 4:1.

This is just a feeler. Is anyone interested??? Its very beautiful with crystal water lillies in pools, large calcite crystals, calcite waterfalls etc. Its a short trip but there is also fairy into Hilwithy (I think thats the one) which should be open. Shatter is a very low crawl up through a pipe entrance but then opens out, It is not wet. Ive done it twice, its very pretty.

Love it . . .
