I poked around S Ale and Cakes and Wheal Brittania and found a very modern laddered shaft (with a horrible smell coming out of it). Poked around in the adjacent woods, found lots of very hairy looking depressions. Also found an old footway shaft (again, gas detector needed). Horrible rubbish filled woods.
Found a lot of open stuff to go in somewhere sensitive.
Found that Wheal Busy black dog footway is capped. Would be interesting to see both black dog shafts as they were both in recentish use. Will be able to see these from links with Camborne. (anyone with any Busy sections? )
Contemplated having a quick descend of Camborne Shaft, just to see if it was open above water but decided that it was a bad idea by myself.
Need to go back with some people and ropes. Preferably next Saturday.
