A classic Yorkshire trip! A very sociable Easegill traverse on Saturday with everyone heading from County to either Cow or Lanc and Sunday saw a small team doing a bimble into County to collect the ropes.

Derbyshire once again ensared us in it's icey grip and despite some blizzard conditions we managed a JH --> Peak trip on Saturday with some bouncing and some doing the full through trip. A small derig trip on Sunday nearly ended in disaster when half metre snow drifts cut off Rowter farm whilst the deriggers were underground.

The new year began with the annual Mendips trip. Normally very popular and this year was no exception! Satuday saw most of the group head into Swildons, with two short round teams and one sump bounce team. Sunday saw a variety of activity, some in Eastwater, some on ladder retrieval duty in Swildons and some practicising SRT rescue techniques on the tower.

We've survived another year of caving and what better way to cap it off than a week in beautiful Yorkshire? This winter tour saw us welcoming the New Year in Easegill, some classic Lost John's action, a trip to the ever-impressive Gaping Ghyll, and a rope rescue training sesh to finish!

The threat of Derbyshire discouraged many and we were left with only the keenest, crackedest cavers. Despite our Peak District misgivings it turned out to be an excellent trip. We managed an audible exchange in Maskhill/Oxlow on Saturday. On Sunday we, under the direction of our newer cavers, probed the many horrible muddy crawls of Peak.

Another massive Yorkshire trip! To the surprise of many we pulled of a complete Lost Johns visit with every route rigged and the bottom reached. Certainly something we haven't done in a long time. On Sunday we visited Notts 2, throughly inspecting the scaffolding and subsequent cave.

Our first Yorkshire trip proved to be very popular despite the lack of permits. West Kingsdale therefore was the unlucky host of 18 ICCCers on Satruday in Bull, Jingling, Rowten and Simpsons! Sunday saw a couple of teams swapping caves, Bull and Jingling, cleverly left rigged on Saturday and definitely no-one went to Gaping Ghyll.

Back to OFD, this time getting right into the stream way on Saturday although turning back before Top waterfall with detours to see Trident and Judge. Sunday saw a visit to Porth Y Ogof, which was doubly fun due to exceptionally high water levels.

A great first trip to Wales. Based in the WSG we had trips to OFD (top entrance) where we did the short loop, high waters preventing us getting into the streamway safely. On Sunday we visited the beautiful Bridge and White Lady caves.

Hello new IC students!

Welcome to the Imperial College Caving Club website. If you are interested in caving, you've come to the right place.

We are an active and friendly club. We have regular weekend caving trips, mid-week meet ups in London, and foreign expeditions (...holidays). We hope you'll want to get involved.

A list of our upcoming trips can be found above, as well as on our GCal. There's lots of useful information for new and prospective members here. You can also check out our trip reports in the menu to the left. A typical Wales (fresher's) trip; A typical Yorkshire trip. And please email us on our gmail if you have any questions.

Our next appearance will be in Beit Quad at Fresher's Fair, maybe we will see (or have seen) you there. After that join us in Princes Gardens each Wednesday at 1pm where we will be doing an equipment familiarisation session (read: climbing in trees with our caving kit) or at the Union Bar on Tuesdays at 7pm (starting 8/10/13) for beer and wildly exaggerated tales of past caving adventures.
