A big SRT trip down to Workshop. This is a trip that is for people who like long ascents, and can handle rebelays reliably when help is a long way away. A dramatic and long trip!

Fri, 16th Oct

Classic Nettle Pot SRT trip down to Crumble and Beza. Note: The entrance pitch through The Narrows is tight and awkward to prussik up (though not super tight). This is a notably challenging trip - if you haven't heard of it, it's worth a chat or a search.

Friendly and compact lead mine explore near Pikehall/Matlock. Ideal second or 3rd time trip with the Crew.

An obscure SRT trip to a seldom-visited mine near the Via Gelia with 1.5 SRT pitches and some interesting pipe workings.

Sun, 22nd Nov

A challenging but not too challenging SRT Intermediate Trip in one of Derbyshire's most spectacular vertical caves. You won't spend much time off a rope, and it's a good step up into intermediate SRT once you've got the hang of it. Not an ideal place to mess up a rebelay (of which there are many), but relatively forgiving.
