Hiya Cavers, *tldr*; - Trip to Yorkshire 8th-10th November (£37) - You need to come to tree training if you want to go on the trip - Email to ask for a place before buying the trip fee - Join our Facebook group It's time to think about Yorkshire! We'll be leaving on Friday 8th November and getting back late on the Sunday. *Tree Training* If you want to come on this trip, or any of our trips to Yorkshire or Derbyshire, you'll need to come along to tree training to learn how to use ropes in the caves! We'll be in Princes' Gardens on Wednesdays from 1-5 pm to teach you all you need to know. *Yorkshire* "North Yorkshire is the classic caving region in Britain for vertical caving, including probably the most famous cave entrance Gaping Gill a massive 110m shaft. The rugged beauty of the moors provides a stunning backdrop to an enormous choice of exciting potholes. A favourite with existing members for practising rope skills." *The Trip* The trip will cost £37 and this covers all accommodation, travel, equipment hire and food for the weekend! If you haven't already bought membership for the club, you'll also need to buy that on the union shop before you can purchase the trip fee. The trip fee will appear sometime next week but please don't buy it until we have confirmed you have a place. We'll set off in one of the union minibuses after lectures on Friday and stop at a supermarket to buy food and booze for the weekend. The drive is long but there'll be bangin' tunes and good company to make the time fly. We'll be staying at a caving hut (a cottage for cavers) in North Yorkshire. The caving cottages have bunk rooms, toilets, a kitchen and showers, as well as somewhere to dry your caving kit. The cave on Saturday will be Alum pot (weather dependent) which is a large open shaft so we will be potentially caving in the daylight! On Sunday /the weather turns foul /we want to split people up more, we will go to Kingsdale where there are many good caves.

Make sure you come to tree training on Wednesday as well so we know you've done all the SRT techniques. There are limited spaces so I recommend deciding if you're interested sooner rather than later! *Facebook Group* If you haven't signed up to our Facebook group, you may be missing info on social events etc. You can join the group here <https://www.facebook.com/groups/imperialcaving/?ref=group_header>.
