Hidden Earth 2011

Mark — Sun, 24 Jul 2011 20:03:32 +0000

Details for 2011′s Hidden Earth are available. This years event is being held in Monmouth, South Wales on September 23rd-25th. Last years event was a big success, and i would strongly recommend going if you would like to know more about Caving! Because of its convenient location close to the Brecons there is no reason why we cant try and make a weekend out of it and stay in a hut. Currently SWCC is booked, however there are more close by that we could use, Westminster or Whitewalls… There is camping available on site, but this can be decided in the near future…

If there is enough interest then a hut can be booked. Please email me (mkb9) if you would like to go, also I will be sending this out as an email. Please note that the club will not be organising tickets to the event, these you can do yourself. Check there site; http://hidden-earth.org.uk/index2.html

Sod Mendip – lets go caving in Slough!

Personally I think this is great. Though the words Who and Why spring to mind. And people, bear in mind that the cave is likely to contain pitches. If you want to partake in a trip here and you’re not confident with your SRT, get in touch with Chris.
