Academy Drain / Bolling Beck, Bradford Report 01/07/10

[MJS]

Me and Gambino had planned on doing Academy for sometime now but we were unable to see it all :cry:
It's a fair old walk to this place. Down Bradford Beck, then turning back on yourself at Cathedral Chamber and up Bolling Beck. Unfortunately the air quality upstream of Bolling Beck got really bad and cut our mission short. A nasty sour sulphur kind of smell, really hit the back of your throat, never whiffed anything like that underground! We decided that it was time to leave so only have a handful of pictures!

Gutted we didn't see it all, but better being safe than sorry!
So we trudged back through the system and back to Gambino's van

Cracking shots, give us a shout when you wanna go back and I will bring the 4-gas, just in case. Was nothing like that when we went, better to be safe and sorry man :)
