Wednesday Evening 5th April 2023

Mike Kushy, Sam Hill and Adrian Miles. Took some more buckets to Tooth Dig and a drill. Started with Adrian in the dumping grounds with Sam at the top of the climb and Mike at the bottom clearing back all the built up rock. Then we all moved forwards and cleared everything back from the corner. Then we moved back one space again to clear up to the dumping ground. After this MK went to the start of the tunnel with SH in the little chamber before the corner and AM at the base of the climb. Cleared back a lot. Eventually AM joined MK and the rest of the rock blocking the dig face was broken up and cleared back. A couple of dozen buckets were also sent back for clearing. Everyone had a look at the sharp end and remarked how cold it felt. It's definitely looking prospectful with a rising ceiling, digging at the end is now just sharp sand material and some gloopy mud that drops down from higher up. Hard work with three, the ideal number would be 6 now to get stuff back smoothly. We could do with a few inches off the block at the bottom of the climb down, a few inches off the corner block on the left and the squeeze over the angled slab past the corner could do with a few inches off the top or removed completely. 3 hours.
