GG - Several Hours later we emerge from Bar Pot 11 of 15

In between the previous Picture and this one, I'd (Col) lead Lionel & Patrick from the bottom of Stream Passage pot, through Sand Cavern, along SE passage, passed the bottom of Flood and Bar Pot entrances, along New Hensler's to Hensler's Stream Passage, then back to Hensler's High Aven.

Stopped to look at the rope dangling there from the rigged Hensler's Pot entrance.

On though to Hensler's Mud Crawl (Lionel and Patrick were muttering murderous threats in my direction, I'd have been in trouble if they hadn't been too cold and tired to get me!

We popped up into the far side of Mud Hall, traversed across and up the chain.

Then made our way back to the Main Chamber. Patrick was looking lovingly at the winch, followed by more mutterings, I though for a moment I was going to have a mutiny on my hands.

After an awe struck wander round the main chamber we made our way back to SE Passage and along to the bottom of bar pot. A good prusik and we were up.

After the round trip we were a little fatigued and so the awkward bit at the top of Bar Pot was a bit of a tease, but here we are popping back out into the sunshine.

Patrick grumbling the he didn't want to do Bar Pot again for a very long time (which turned out to be about 26 hours!)
