Friday 12/02/10

Martin stayed at home to prepare for the invasion by the Shepton Mallet Caving Club (7 members) whilst Phil took Emma and Mike on a jungle trek to find “Cave 25” near Tham Yai Nam Nao. This cave has not been descended before due to a small entrance pitch, so we loaded our bags with ropes, drill and bolting kit to explore.

With a later start than planned due to GPS problems and some route finding issues, we parked up and started to walk at 1:30pm. The walk through the jungle was hot work and Phil was busy showing us the evidence of Elephants in the vicinity. We found what we think is the cave entrance at 4:00pm – just in time to turn round and head out before dark!
