“A good technical cave with hidden adventures”
This cave starts off with a two stage abseil, before the real adventure begins! Slide your kneepads on and get ready for some crawling, chimneying and scrambling. After a low crawl at the bottom of the shaft and below some boulders, you’ll be able to stand up again in a narrow rift. From there, the way up is via the hole in the wall known as The Kidney Squeeze, followed by a climb up to the Dragons Teeth. The Dragons Teeth is an broad, sloped flattener, with multiple ridges that are sure to give your spine a nice back massage, they end abruptly with a drop into a large chamber perfect for lunch and an explore. This is actually the start of the cave because this blurb is written backwards. We start by abseiling into this *large* chamber, and will follow the description in reverse – to ascend out the Shaft.
