Greenlink Cave
Term two has seen Year 13 OED served up a steady diet of ropes, hardware, gumboots and dark places. The caving unit always rates as a favorite for most students and 2009 is no exception. Weeks of training in the use of SRT (single rope technique) has given students the skills to begin exploring the amazingl caving opportunities the local area provides. Greenlink cave offers a great introduction to vertical caving and on a beautiful sunny Friday we descended into the dark and wet of the spelunkers world to put new skills to test. Here's a quick tour of the first 200m of Greenlink, albeit without the aid of camera lighting rigs.
