Ogof Hesp Alyn - "Into the Unknown"

Join Tim, Mike, Doug and Guy as we relive the story from beyond the Sumps!

I suggest you might want to open them in youtube itself and increase to maximum size and quality.




For those interested in the cave prior to the sumps, see my previous video here:

You all put a hell of a lot of effort in to that trip, Tim, hats off to you for doing the filming.

yer - sorry theres not much of it. Most effort was going into moving forward rather than bothering to get my camera in and out of my bag - not to mention having to lick the muddy lens clean (i joke not) everytime i used it. Not much clean stuff down there to wipe it with! So hence the slightly smeary video footage!

I thought forward and took a pack of wet wipes for exactly this purpose - but they were in my bag and didn't stay clean very long!

Awesome video.

I am surprised that Doug has not yet learned he cannot stay dry by wearing a giant orange bag. He has tried many times and each time failed to keep the water out.

Great stuff Tim

Ian

Well done, good video and nice to see it again.

Just thought it worth stating again for the record that much credit should go to members of NWCC for their tireless trips through 2010 getting the siphon sorted out and lowering the water enough to make such a trip possible.
Thanks and handshakes also go out to the pioneering cavers who first pushed this cave many years ago and who provided the gear that we use today.

marc, yup - no question about it. and i gave full credit to NWCC at the end of the video. Thanks also to Michael Klim specifically for the help and good advice he gave me on the phone.
