“Hanging there in the middle of all of this furious beauty, suspended well above firm earth yet somewhere below the reach of the sunshine, unable to reach out and touch anything except the surrounding emptiness, yet moved to the core, his path through the shadows illuminated only by the lamp he brought with him, dwells the marauder of the underworld; the caver.”
In this special feature, Matt Gosling, Treasurer of York University Caving and Pothole offers an insight into the club’s recent visit to Gaping Gill, near Ingleborough, North Yorkshire - one of the country’s most famous caves.
