What’s on
Caving Meets
The club holds regular organised caving meets, offering a mix of caves and potholes with varying degrees of difficulty, from easier trips for novices to more technical and challenging outings for the more experienced. All members are encouraged to volunteer to co-ordinate a club trip. Pick a date and venue to suit yourself, we will then advertise it below and email all members about it. Please contact the Meets Sec with any offers and suggestions.
Saturday 11th April: Ease Gill Trip
Ease Gill trip likely to be in The Mistral/Pippikin area, including the tying up of some surveying leads for Ray on Sheet 6 of the survey for those so inclined. Contact Chris () for details.
Saturday 16th May: Bucket-on-the-Head
Coordinator is Dinny – please get in touch if you are interested.
Trip will only be happening if it’s dry and the forecast is good.
Through trip can be made to Crystal Cave in dry conditions, neoprene will be necessary for that, as there are at least five, low air space ducks, and a squeeze.
Friday 5th June - Sunday 14th June: Ease Gill Open House
Ease Gill OpenHouse is an annual open caving meet running this year from 5th-14th June. It’s organised by the RRCPC who will pre-rig seven of the most popular entrances into the Ease Gill cave system.
We encourage cavers to come and enjoy some of the best UK caving tackle-free…and no permits needed!
Being pre-rigged provides a fantastic opportunity for cavers to enjoy a variety of through-trips, visit popular locations and sights, or learn how to navigate this complex system.
Social Events
Social events are favourite get-togethers for all club members, caving or non-caving, young or old, there’s always an upcoming social gathering, from talks and slide shows, cakes and curry to fundraisers, bbqs and even a few fireworks. Join in the fun, and if you’d like to help out at a social event or suggest a new one, just contact Lucy – she’ll be pleased to hear from you!
