Second Saturday
9th November 2019 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
Digging Special.
Duration – 3 – 4 hours.
Location – Meet at Upper Pitts at 10:00.
The Wessex Cave Club has a long tradition of digging and many members are active every week pursuing long term digging projects across the Mendip hills. This is your chance to visit some of these digs, see what is involved, learn about the techniques used and no doubt haul a few buckets. The dig sites will include the opportunity to visit and help out at Mitchell’s, Spider Hole, Rose Cottage and Bagpit.
For those that are really keen (and have a love of mud) there will also be the chance to visit Snake Pit on Sunday morning too.
No special equipment is required, although a belay belt is recommended for anyone visiting Mitchell’s or Spider.
