John Cooper and Dave Morrison (Tuska). Took across 4 bags of sand, 1 bag of cement already there. Put electron ladder don then John life lined Dave down. After inspection life lined him back out. Dave thinks best to tackle the higher level hole along the solid right wall rather then the lower left which goes into nasty breakdown. Then John went down and did a bit of plug and feather work. 2 buckets of spoil. 2½ hours. John.
