Saturday 7th September 2024

Mike Kushy, solo. Went in about 7.15pm. Took the drill in to downsize the big boulders ahead. Need to break rock down some more, but all the bigger stuff has now been moved back. Filled up some sacks of clatch. The chamber to the left looks really interesting and I think we should cement a way into this. Down in the floor it looks caveable beyond the next boulders. 3 hours.

Friday 6th September 2024

Mike Kushy, Jason Hares, John and Danny Arnold.

First we started by clearing the rocks at the bottom of the 10ft climb back to the chamber. Then we all moved down cave and cleared the over stock of rocks from the bottom. These all ended up in the chamber eventually. MK then went to the front and filled sacks, these got tipped into the pit at the Boulder Rift connection. After the front was cleared sufficiently there were bigger rocks to plug and feather. MK set about this and the others all took turns to look at the front. When the others were gone a few rocks were felled but not enough battery to break them all up. There's a couple of small streams below us somewhere. Draught okay today. 4 1/2 hours for me. MK.
