Yay Milda , I must be old because the mention of a good shaft had me sniggering 😮, but I once again admire your true courage in going through those crawls . Absolutely amazing blue shaft , I don’t know what it is about seeing clear, clean deep water like that but it gives me goosebumps of wanting to swim in it , freezing cold or not . So thank you beautiful for a great upload and plz take care of your lovely self ❤ . See you on the next one 💯🏴all the best from Somerset x
Hey Simon, ha ha the joke is on me 🤣. I think we're all programmed to like the blue water through evolution, it's clean, and so little blue in nature anyway!
Thank you Milda and Team, it seems you have taken over from Chris now 😊 Was expecting it to be flooded more due to the heavy rains. Should be Uave drone Aeromagnetic Survey over Clogau next month. How was the new Torch.. In another 150 years, they'll be saying this was Milda's Wellington boot print😂
Thanks Stephen, me too I was thinking waist deep as mid Wales mines are very wet. Is that Alba surveying the surface? Hope they can dewater the Llechfraith soon. You're right, and once my wellies are worn I might have to leave one in some mine for a lucky find 🤣
@MildaGoesWild Yes Alba, just been unlucky with the rainfall. Your video of Llechffraith adit, must of been the last one since the safety work. I visited and saw all the old timbers and ladders outside.
@@stephenbirch5635oh dear, all the old timbers... but I'm happy there is going to be mining, and hopefully NRW will be more reasonable with the pumping limits this time. Forgot to reply about the new torch - yes was looking for something very lightweight but bring, got a Sofirn as they're super waterproof and happy with it. Also Ledlenser sent me a replacement as the one I for before was terrible so hope to try that new one out soon too.
@MildaGoesWild I thought and hope those timbers would of been saved. I think on your video, the timbers and ladders were in the adit. NRW have been slow, especially when you see the drain pipes under the ground near the Llechfraith Adit pouring into the Afon Cwm-Llechen. Yet the Llechfraith levels are clear and clean. I met Mark Austin at Dolgellau, he is a Good person and very excited. Plus the Waste Tips I got lost walking to Clogau Gold Mine up the hill.. the bracken was so high but the view was lovely. You do so well finding these mines. 6 hour drive, traffic at m25 (a3) and Birmingham.
@@MildaGoesWild Thanks for the warning Milda... It may be a while as I'm up in Snowdonia next month for a holiday... Looking in.... Mines👀and some walking. Exciting 😁
The so called Imperial Shaft (flooded) connects to the mine above in the valley, level above and below. The other winze we visit earlier in the mine connects to a mine adjacent/below in the valley and I wanted to test that but didn't have the right bolts and hangers to hand.
@MildaGoesWild are you planning a return trip with bolts? Lost Mines channel have a ROV they send down flooded shafts, that shaft would be perfect for that, maybe a collaboration between channel's. Would be cool to see what's at the bottom 😎
@@p.m3735 possibly I'd return although there are probably better places that would take the priority but why not. Not as much into the ROV business I have to admit, not the same when you can't proper feel and touch it.

Thanks once again Milda. Very nerve wracking watching the crawls, got to admire your courage. Stay safe x
Thanks Gwyn, these were little crawls fortunately, the vertical after the first one was a bit scary though knowing a collapse could bury you in...😬

@@stephenbirch5635 they are slow and frustrating considering Alba asked for the correct levels within the original application. But hey ho.
Oooo👀. Definitely haven't been there... Not for long though 😁
Ha ha that's funny, now you have to go there 3 times 😂 for real. Do be careful with the little vertical, it's very loose.

What a great explore, really interesting mine, great that you were able to find the shaft. Do you know how far down it goes?
