Crimea Expedition, Karabi Yaila

Expedition members: Larry Blanchard, Kevin Francis, Mandy Fu, Rosie Holmes

A great time was had by all.  We managed to drop about 11 caves between us and Mandy managed to push a dig a little with her diminutive frame skills.  The formations were magnificent and the SRT was fun, even when prussiking with up to 16 litres of water for the camp. Many friends were made and our Ukrainian hosts were magnificent and we hope to return soon.

A fuller report of the caving will follow.
