Do Bodybuilders Wear Thong Underwear

out of work Roquebleu Saturday, December 18

Proceedings of the exit of the cave ROQUEBLEU :

Editor of the record: Patrick Cabrol.

Participants: Patrick Cabrol - DREAL.

Alain FAURE - SC AUDE.

Denis Matarini - SCMNE

Purpose of release: rehabilitation

Work Completed:

Ascent Hall of Shale:

We brought the new scale of two meters at the foot of the rise of the Hall of shale. (Photos 1, 5, 6) It was fixed to the floor with a bracket, bolt in calcite, and its top with another square, with stud in the rock. It does not move at all.

We finished the installation of the Lifeline (new string), which starts from the bottom, and arrives at the summit (photo 7). We removed the old rope that was as good calva "age out"!!

Room Shale:

We ended up tagging the entry of the Hall of shale, and have placed a second U-iron on the last little "climb", especially important for the descent.

For the release of the Hall of Shale (descent to the flap), we added a string temporary, pending the installation of a new rope, the PPE standard. We've added some studs, and as a final iron U in the vertical passage.

We have lunch at the Hall of shale.

After the flap:

We redid all markup from the output of the flap, until the transition in castings and white drapery. At last 10 meters, we had no pickets markup rather short, we put longer, while waiting for the right size.

We redid the moorings of the rise in the Gallery of Trees in Clay. It was urgent, because the rope was rubbing up and she was in very bad shape at that point. Again we had a good calva "ageless." We cut the tip dangerous, and placed this rope until a new rope as soon as possible.

We placed an iron U additional in the path of flows and white draperies, to cling more to the rise in the concretions. This is where we stopped our work for that day.

We have revealed a complete set of plastic and "carpet" variety. A real bullet to shoot!!
Thanks Alain.

Conclusion:

Since the drapes down and cast white located before the Gallery Room, it remains to be done the following work:

In wells entries must to steel studs to replace the bolts that date from the early explorations. We must add one or two U-irons, instead of the second scale (see on-site assembly). We must bring down the big cracked block which is located above the block that has been dynamited, allowing patency standing (1 / 2 hours to 3 / 4 hours of work).

Just before the climb to the Hall of shale, must finish the marking on the left side of the gallery. We must add two U-irons before the climb.

From the output of the Hall of Shale , it remains to put new strings, wherever there is string of early exploration, who have rendered loyal service, but does have no place here: down the hall toward the flap of shale, clay trees to climb, and flowstone draperies and white cast before (before the Gallery Room). There will no doubt others I have not seen in the cavity. These changes are urgent and priority.

After the Hall of shale, we used in several places, stainless steel quick links to 10 mm, because we had more links in 8 mm. It would have to buy a score, and keep the 10 mm, for fasteners wellhead, in the Trou de la Vigne, when we ask new String (command DREAL, I'll repeat for Denis).

Similarly, you have to buy some twenty steel plates because we have none. Today, we have stainless steel studs 27 of a total of 100 moorings and 7 complete (steel studs + platelets). This should be very fair to all finish at Roquebleu, regarding the studs.

It will intersect the stakes markings because they are too long. We have all emerged. The stakes are 30 cm for sand, or anything that is friable, but for the "hard", where calcite rock, you have stakes of 20 cm, which fit better into the landscape. In Lauzin, we have stakes of 30 cm, which are well adapted to the sizes of the galleries, which is not the case Roquebleu.

I think that to make all this work and thus closing the site until the change in casting and white draperies, we have for half a working day (3 hours) the other half day will be used to finish all work at least until the gallery Sand, except below (crossroads to Zubaida and Volcanoes).

There should be a working day, to do everything (lighting, changing strings, iron U. ..), the intersection between the previous and Zoubida one side, and Volcanoes of the other. It is important to do quickly, because these are the places most frequented by foreign clubs.

In two games a day (maximum two and a half), all work to be done from the entrance to the Volcanoes Zoubida and should be completely finished. This will already be a first major step made for the protection, and also for security in the cavity, because today it wrong.

We have a lot of plastic and "carpet" at various shows, full of water and so heavy!.

The effect of the passage and the work done with Rotary members can clearly see it was a day largely beneficial to progress. The ideal would be to work at least four people together, because of transportation equipment (drills, rods markup, U iron, ropes, food, etc. ....)

I suggest that if an output inter-club took place before the end of the above work, chaperones could take Small punch (Hitachi), which is the lightest, the mooring rope and steel, to fit in nine crossings to be changed: to climb volcanoes and / or Zoubida, as appropriate.

I would this work in January, if I help and time.
