When mpw246pl told me he and Haggis 87 were planning a trip to come here, I didn't need to think about it for a second!
The date was set and then I had time to come to my senses...... I found this cache 6 years ago and began to wonder if I'd still be fit (and slim) enough to make the journey.
From Lasciate we rigged a caving ladder for the descent and also took a few bits and bobs with us 'just in case'. These things did make things a bit more difficult as we had to pass backpacks along as we got to each challenging place but it was worth it to know that we had the gear in case we needed it.
Parts of the route were straight forward but a couple of times we had to do quite a bit of squirming and wriggling to get through, especially at the place where the passage 'kinks a little'...... But this was easier on the way out.
Once at the final place we caused ourselves a good bit of worry as we found the cache and the plastic bag with the paper in it, and convinced ourselves that we should look elsewhere for the 'real' log. Anway, we found it in the end, and after signing it was replaced as found.... Pheww!
The Resident Geocoin was discovered and the journey back was fine and like others, we found the ladder up into Lasciate a difficult thing to overcome.
When we emerged into the rain that was still falling, we notified our emergency contact, Thanks Very Much, and then I sent a text to Mrs Dizzy "We're out - WORN OUT!"
I'd like to say "I'll be back" but if it's another 6 years, very much doubt it, so from me it's.... "Thanks very much for this adventure to a place I will never forget".
