Steph and I did a weekend at Caerllwyn with the younger members of the Westminster Speleological Group. We decided to do the cave Agen Allwedd (Aggy). Steph and I got in on Friday morning, and then she went off for a cave dive while I spent the day at the hut working on trip planning. I got a lot done, and was able to hang out with people as they got in.

Saturday we went to White Hall and hiked out to the entrance of Aggy. We had a group of 6 going to the Music Room (Nas, Jack, Roshan, Will, Steph, and I). It was a gorgeous hike, taking about 45 minutes. I started to overheat from it, as we were in our full cave gear. The entrance was pretty tight, but once we got to the main passage it opened up a lot and was a massive tunnel. We got back to the music room and saw the clay sculptures and music left out in it. On the way back we stopped by a gorgeous chamber called the Earth Chamber. It was a domed room with brightly colored striations in the rock. At the end of the main chamber we took a while to find the exit, but then we made our way out through the tight bits once more. I had a great time and got some great pictures of everyone.

After caving we had a cookout, with Nas grilling a bunch for everyone. The other group didn’t get back until around midnight, when I was already asleep.
