Freshers Fayre
We will be in Beit Quad again for Freshers Fayre (Tuesday Oct 4th, 11AM-4PM), this time in front of the union bar on the right hand side. Come along to hear tales from the trips last year & plans for this, or stand the other side of the table & speak to the keen new freshers!
Izgubljeni Raj 2011 Slovenia Expedition
We have had a very successful four week expedition this summer to Slovenia. We found over 2.2km of new passage all below -500m in depth, and took the cave to a new deepest point of -888m. All of the exploration took place during underground-camping trips based at X-Ray (-550m).
We gave a talk at the national caving conference last weekend, and you can check out the slides, inspect the survey, admire the photos & read the interim report here:
Sardinia Easter 2011
Also, if you missed our photos + report from the Easter Sardinia trip, it's well worth checking out!
