Only people who have attended a session of Tree Training (Wednesday's from 1 - 5 pm) are able to go on these trips. This is to ensure that you have some experience with how to navigate on a rope *What is Winter Tour?* *From 17 - 23 December is our Winter Tour!* This is a week long trip and a great way to practice your SRT in the best vertical caves the UK has to offer! 5-6 possible trips, including classics such as Notts Pot and Gaping Gill with plenty more! It's a great opportunity to put your advanced tree training to practice, and even learn to navigate your way through a cave. With all types of cave trips being possible, from relaxed trips that allow you to get comfortable with SRT and see beautiful scenery to more intense trips where you can feel accomplished having navigated through 100's of metres of passage whilst looking at beautiful scenery, there's something for everyone. Expect to hear more soon. [image: image.png] (Gaping Gill main chamber, looking at the highest unbroken waterfall in England. Photo taken by Jack Hare.
