ADVICE:
1. Cache within your abilities.
2. Caves – Caving is not a dangerous sport if carried out by trained and responsible cavers following recognised safety procedures. However, to the uninitiated caves can be dangerous places. You are strongly advised NOT to enter the caves without the proper instruction in the techniques and equipment necessary.
3. The weather here can be very changeable and you need to be prepared if it changes. It's not a nice place to be in foul weather.
