Robinsons Pot

Location
Grid Reference: SD 899 706

Altitude: 323m

Probably the most unusual location of any pothole in the Dales.

Description
After an 8m ladder pitch a passage and traverse leads via a climb to 1862 Cavern, crawling passages bring you to a junction with MacColl's Rift. This fine and large passage is choked at either end, but near the western end is a small passage (Crossover Passage) which connects to the Main Streamway via a climb. Downstream leads to a sump, with short passage on the left to a further sump. Upstream leads along walking passage for ~200m before reaching the upstream sump. In the sump pool a low passage on the right leads to the Worm Series.

Access
Owing to the rather sensitive location access is restricted to three trips a year. The CNCC access pages provides more information.
