876361 2010-04-14 04:59:00 As one who is close to the action, do you know what cave was joined into the Ellis Basin System to make a 1km plus deep cave? The news media only name the upper cave by an EK code but I suspect it was an existing cave which had been extended eg I think Falcon was heading in that direction. user (1404)
876362 2010-04-14 06:21:00 Hmm no I don't know at this point but might by Friday as off to a cavers meeting tomorrow night. Are you from this area? gary67 (56)
876363 2010-04-14 06:56:00 From MSG. I've caved in the Ellis System some years ago with Kieran.

Cheers.

876367 2010-04-14 22:01:00 I was interested in this too...just hadn't got around to making my own thread about it yet. :p wratterus (105)
876368 2010-04-14 22:04:00 x2. Although I'm not a caving person, get claustrophobia, I do like watching caving programs on TV.

876369 2010-04-14 22:28:00 Thanks Gary, do you know if EK310 has another name. It would have to have been a 400m+ deep cave, which is a significant depth. Was it a recent discovery or an existing hole that was pushed deeper? News reports are so unreliable as the reporters are not familiar with the material and often get things wrong eg initial articles mentioned the cave as being near Murchison yet talked about the Ellis Basin. user (1404)

WTH Roddy? Can you not tell that this is not a private conversation. My title was merely to let Gary know to read my posting since he is in the best position to answer the question. Don't be so quick off the mark. Perhaps you wish you were a moderator?
