Water Icicle Close Cavern

While Karen did what may have been the sensible option of going shopping with work mates, I met Keith and Pete Collins in Monyash at the café for breakfast.
The weather had turned much colder than of late with a heavy frost which helped Pete get the truck he had borrowed from work up Derby Lane all the way to the end. He had borrowed the truck to get a load of scaffold poles and clips up towards the cave entrance.
We got changed and started moving the scaffolding over to the shaft entrance and then down the shaft.
Then started the hard work of getting it all through North-west Passage and up the builders ladder to leave the scaffolding just outside the gate to the newer extensions.

The scaffolding will be used in the continuing dig at the foot of The Elevator pitch in the future.
