Lost Johns Cave, Leck Fell, Yorkshire

With the amount of rain that had fallen of late, and was still falling as we set off, the only possible route down the cave was via the dry pitches: Hammer, Mud Pot, Centipede, Candle and Shistole. We looked along Battle-Axe Traverse and heard the water thundering below before setting off back up the pitches. When we surfaced after about four and a half hours the rain has stopped and the sun was sunning. Definitely a system to return to.
