INCIDENT 32/2024 MAY 18th SAT. 21.56 POOL SINK TO WRETCHED RABBIT, EASE GILL SYSTEM, CASTERTON, CUMBRIA.

Cumbria Police alerted the team when a party of cavers (2m, 4f) doing a through trip from Pool Sink to Wretched Rabbit in Ease Gill were reported by their callout person to be significantly overdue.  Team members proceeded to Bull Pot Farm to search the route the cavers had taken, while members of the CRO Cavers List and underground members of Upper Wharfedale Fell Rescue Association (UWFRA) were placed on standby in case a more extensive search became needed.  As the first team members were getting ready to go underground the overdue party arrived back at Bull Pot Farm, having taken much longer than anticipated to complete their trip.
