We had agreed on Whalf
Pipe Mine at Knotlow.
After meeting up at
the café in Monyash for breakfast, we drove to Knotlow Triangle to
find several cars already parked there but they were starting to
leave as we arrived. Roy asked them what they were planning to do and
they said they had camped in Hillocks mine overnight and were leaving
to have breakfast and then a few would return and clean any mess they
had made.
We got changed in the
light rain or drizzle and then dropped down Whalf Pipe Climbing Shaft
with myself rigging the pitch and Roy following next with Karen
taking up the rear.
We had a look around
various parts of the old mine and cave and then returned to the
surface to get changed and have a mug of tea again in the café.
Afterwards we drove
back to the OCC cottages to clean ropes and also show Roy around.
