Hendre spar mine

top stuff fella im still yet to do a mine

Cheers pal, Yeah this is a good one if you've not been down one before, its really simple getting about down it. Theres is only a few small section where you need ropes (the worm hole being one of them) but you'll still see a lot interesting parts without using ropes.

That place looks huge, stunning pictures.

Well done :popcorn

Cheers, yeah there are some big spaces, not the biggest ive seen but these where easier to light.

Tis a nice mooch this aint it!

First time me and copycat went it took us about half an hour to find that fuckin entrance lol

ha yeah man it is pretty hidden, i was more than pleased with the entrance on this one though as you dont have to walk a million miles to get to it.

Cheers man, some thing to do with the insurance or something like that, to stop the "wrong sort of people" using it and putting a claim in, but i would of thought it would just be easier to taker the ladder out of the entrance. To be honest we only used a little bit of the rigging once so it wont make that much difference but seem a shame to take down the zip wire as well.
