Grateful to be invited out with the Wednesday crew, especially to a long awaited tick off of Pierre's Pot. We collectively aimed to find the bypass, albeit others focused more on route finding whilst I was distracted capturing some clips.

We found a likely contender for the bypass, but not a route that looked inviting without route confirmation, thus a return is necessitated.

Glad to visit Pierres, but also helped to understand why it had taken so long to visit. Little rigging to dust off the knot work.

The surprise nourishment at the end was a real treat, thanks MW

Great company and teamwork in this slippery illogical cave - never top of the list but we keep going back from time to time, now we need to go back to try the bypass, although it looks rather committing / alarming
