Apologies for the rubbish formatting, wil sort it out at some point, for the time being, hover over the photos for the captions. Edvin

On Saturday, the only photos that were taken were by Martin, on his hard-as-nails trip to Bye George Pot with Becka and Julian.
Stals in Bye George Pot Helictites More helictites in Bye George
Sunday was a little more photogenic, with a trip to Notts II on Leck Fell (so named as it was originally discovered by diving from Notts Pot, although a dry entrance has since been found). This is an extensive cave carrying a large stream, with many beautiful decorations in the main streamway and the many side inlets.
