Expedition log, New Year 1974/75

Trumbio 1974/75

(This expedition was not logged at the time, so the following paragraphs are from memory.)

Departure date was 27 December 1974; the ferry company cancelled our daytime trip to Le Havre but gave us a free cabin on the overnight passage! Very welcome.

We attempted a survey of Tinganón using a protractor as an clinometer (which Bill still has, in 2007!).

We were accommodated in the Rales house (see below) by Tony’s mother (Maria Luisa).

We went down Rales cave. This was almost certainly the through trip starting at Pozo de Molino, through the squeeze/duck down the pitches and cascades and out via Fuentica.

New Year’s Eve was spent in Llanes, where we took pictures and also visited Matiu’s club (disco).

After New Year’s we went up to the Lakes in very frosty weather for photographs near Trumbio and surface explorations, etc., and on a later day drove up the Deva gorge and viewd Pozo del Infierno. 74 photos in all.
