Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Pool Sink The diminutive entrance to Pool Sink is behind the leftmost figure (in the red suit), where a low crawl leads into the ramifications of Easegill Caverns, England's most extensive cave system. Easegill Beck is normally dry at this point, the water having sunk into the caves further upstream at Top Sink. However, in flood, the area in front of the cavers becomes a deep pool which may rise quickly until water flows into the cave entrance which rapidly floods. The party in this picture, having noted a blackening of the sky and heard a rumble of thunder, have just made the decision to use another entrance. In fact, it didn't rain here, but only a few miles away at Ribblehead, the thunderstorm caused local flooding so the decision was probably a wise one. They had a good trip anyway ! |
