Our novices Caroline & Martin & Old hand from the OUCC Jim Sheppard
These guys all work with me and we had discussed doing a caving trip together for a while. Rachel & Richard organised the gear and met us at the woodbine in Hope.
We all set off to the cave for an excellent round trip of Giants. All had a great time despite the grade 3 change (horizontal rain and 2 degrees C eek!).
Both novices were still saying they’d like to do some more caving and were discussing what gear they needed to buy – so more trips may be in the offing. A weekend in the Mendhips has been suggested.

How does grade 3 compare to similar conditions on Leck Fell?
I’ve been thinking about giving them a star rating as well
Leck Fell is definitely the best (or worst) place to change. “Still a classic amongst changing locations since it maintains ‘interest’ to the bitter end” brrrr.
A classic grade V location.
Oxlow deserves a mention: All the climactic charm of Giants Hole, and you’re on the side of a main road as well!
