Box Freestone Quarry
Part 5
The boys at a railway junction.
Squeezing through a major fall.
This tank would have used to fill the steam engine that hauled the stone out in latter years.
It had filled with drips from the ceiling. That's a lot of drips!
Heading back to the entrance.
Max about to squeeze through a small gap.
Ben negotiates a crawl through some fallen rocks.
The tightest squeeze we had to do.
Another person from our party finds his way through.
Max and I on the final stretch.
Crawling back to the entrance.
Daylight again.
Happy after a fantastic explore.
Waiting for everyone to emerge.
Tired, with helmet-hair, but very, very happy.
I had wanted to do Box Quarry for many years, and to have the opportunity was just fantastic. I am forever indebted to the great people from Darkplaces who led us around - thanks guys.
