HANGMAN'S HOLE

An ominous cave with a forbidding entrance series; lots of loose rock and no bolts for SRT purists.

Hangman's Hole is a good test for SRT rigging off natural anchors. In really icy weather a 15m handline is useful for the entrance climb and the boulder slope below. Unprintable Passage had plenty of airspace, but larger cavers will need to clear a lot of silt at the start of the crawl. The very tight squeeze linking Bridge Pot with Pedestal Chamber is only passable by thin cavers and is (probably) impossible to reverse without physical assistance from below.
