Whitepit - 08th June 2011

Mark Denning, Stu Gardiner, Mike Moxon & Henry Dawson

The borrowed St Cuthberts 110v cable (100m) was installed from the entrance down through the cave to the current dig face where around 5m was coiled up for future progression.  The cable was cable tied down the ladder as not to cause an obstruction and tucked away off the main route through the cave.

Once the cable was installed some more hard digging was carried on with little progress being made, Mark had his battery drill so a few plugs and feathers were used and some small sections were removed.

The hole remains small and the removal of any spoil from within requires a very awkward inverted manoeuvre.

Total time underground: 2.5 hours
