County Pot Trip Log: Pitch Previews, Route Descriptions & Video. [ Cave Info ](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk) [Cave Directory](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/caves) [Interactive Cave Map](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/cave-map) [About](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/about) Yorkshire Dales - Three Counties / Ease GillCounty Pot ========== County Pot is a popular cave entrance to the Ease Gill Caverns in the Yorkshire Dales. It offers a bit of everything in terms of SRT, flat out crawls, fantastic formations and features. There are mulitple routes so you can visit and see something different each time. Grade 3 Routes Completed 2 Visits 0 SRT Cave? Yes Access [Book Online](https://booking.cncc.org.uk/system/booking/cave.php?id=186) Access Land (CRoW) refers to land where you have a right to roam on foot. In caving, this often means the entrance is located on such land.

Slow driving is recommended. Once you've you got to the end of the road, it should become obvious where you can park. There are gravel / grass verges on the either side on the approach to Red Rose. It can get very busy here so you might have to reverse back and take a left and see if there's any space there instead. Please see the yellow areas marked on the map below for ideal parking spaces. [ ![County Pot - Main parking area](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/78/conversions/01KZBVCRVV24DFNZ8133Q3P9KG-thumb.webp) ](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/78/conversions/01KZBVCRVV24DFNZ8133Q3P9KG-optimised.webp) [ ![County Pot - Alternative parking area](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/79/conversions/01KZBVCRXM3SCYD0QSBJ8J35JR-thumb.webp) ](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/79/conversions/01KZBVCRXM3SCYD0QSBJ8J35JR-optimised.webp) [ ![County Pot - Overflow parking area](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/80/conversions/01KZBVCRYA8CY4P6FJR2HNCER7-thumb.webp) ](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/80/conversions/01KZBVCRYA8CY4P6FJR2HNCER7-optimised.webp) ### Walking Route A pleasant walk when the sun has got it's hat on, quite the opposite when its wet and windy! The walk to the cave is mostly uphill and undulating in places. Once you've got to the top of the path from Red Rose, there is an abandoned horse box, take a right here on the somewhat obvious path and follow it up and down. You'll eventually get to a fence with a step you can use to hop over. Follow the fence down and once you get to the end, you'll see a valley with the Ease Gill stream (weather dependant). The path takes a hard left down a steep, but manageable slope. Only a few meters from this is the iron cover to the entrance of County Pot on the left, in the rocks. The route back is the same, but arguably harder given you've been in a cave for a few hours!

I'm going to sell tickets next time and put on a barby although I'm not sure if Barby would attend or not. It's either County Pot that's popular or it's me because April 2025 we had a total of 15 attend. Simon bless him turned up to rig with his poorly arm but as it turned out we had riggers galore and so Simon not wanting to aggravate his poorly arm elected to return home and not cave. My thanks to Simon for the support and turning up to make sure I was okay. Simon also was the other person that had done the route with myself and Julie in February 2026 except for the Dismal Junction which I added on for a round trip. With no Julie or Simon attending I had the pressure of remembering the route! I did have my previous muddy descriptions as back up though. I was also under pressure to get back in time for a fish n' chip tea with my granddaughters and depending on the time meant legging it out of County and across the fell at high speed. So I put out the usual notice on Facebook and e mail, with a very brief description what to expect and I think I delivered it all. We had some new members with lovely new clean over suits and I was thinking I'll soon sort that out and make them look like real caving oversuits. The weather was stunning and it had been dry all week, which meant the Dismal Junction was passable. Arthur set off early to rig and Chris joined him. Paul anchored himself at the top of the pitch as a friendly face for the less experienced SRT members to offer advice and support and so we all dropped down the entrance abyss to cool off and queue up. When all were down in Broadway we removed our SRT gear for the route ahead. Straight down the downstream passage on the left which I think is Oxford Circus as far as Toadstool Junction and then it becomes Razor Passage that ends up at Platypus Junction. Now I'm not sure what it is, but every time I go this route downstream towards Razor passage and Platypus, I hesitate in being unsure of the way through but I always do find the way eventually. Weird! The Dismal Bypass starts, which in our case is a shelf on the left where the two streams meet. Coming from Platypus Junction end it is obviously on the right. There is a little cairn of three stones marking the way which I knocked over with my bag. Yes, I did stack them up again although it is quite obvious to find due to the streams. Here starts a gruelling crawl – sometimes hands and knees but mainly flat out crawling. I had this weird thought of a long line of hands and knees in unison crawling along like a centipede through the passage. A few yards in, there is a step up and the crawl continues eventually reaching an arrow pointing to a small passage on the right. ![](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/huOPnPTpjRza8f34XRVewUGbZYT1lDY9aEi4nh9q.png) *Photo by Chris Bolton* Ignoring that, go left to a boulder that seems to block the way. You can see the passage continuing off to the right. There's a hole on the left and a hole on the right and I was blowed if I could remember which one was the easiest to take. Yes! I did go down the wrong one on the left because even though it leads to the same place it's very tight restriction and maybe too tight with no way to turn around if you get stuck. That being the case Steve had to pull me out backwards by my new boots. Not a good start. So taking the right hand drop is easy because feet first you end up kneeling and then you prostrate yourself to carry on with the crawl. I'll remember next time – if there is ever a next time as this crawling route reminds me of the Notts II to Lost Johns connection crawl which I'll never ever venture in again. Not quite as bad but similar. A body length pool is reached and still flat out you can't help but get wet. Keeping to the middle or slightly right is less restrictive. During all of this crawling there was frequent stops to make sure everyone was still with us and counting from the front we seemed to jokingly lose the last seven bringing up the rear. Lost? No, just a way behind until they caught up. Just occasionally small chambers were reached with a bit more room but no way to fit 18 people in them and so one could rest for long and had to move forward to make space. Finally, reaching a small chamber with a large muddy smooth slab on the right to climb up, which is the way on, ignoring the passage that goes straight on and climbing up with a little twisting of the body one emerges via a hole into the start of the Gallery Extension on the right which is through the lovely gloopy wellie grabbing mud ![](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/ge6LgAWmMt4AKskKDjv9nzWPoBXykplKRX0sxO4G.png) *Gallery Extension – photo Chris Bolton* I promised - but what lovely formations. This was the place where we could all fit and have a natter. I was a bit upset nobody actually left their wellie behind so we could have a good laugh but with some it was a close call. The Gallery is a dead end and returning towards the hole we popped out off and keeping right up the slope is the way on. So climbing up slightly through some boulders we eventually arrived in a chamber with a vertical metal upright bar. This is funnel chamber and the bar presumably was used to remove boulders. Well, that's what I read anyway. The only way on from here is a hole at the far end. Feet first and in another flat out crawl where the crawling passes formations on the left and the right. Climbing up again over boulders reaches another small chamber where only four or five of us could fit and so with others stacking up behind us we continued along the passage which is gloopy wellie grabbing mud again. Leaving the mud behind it wasn't far now to the exit into Molluscan Hall. There are two exits from the passage to Molluscan Hall – one on the left is sideways over a slab or to the right leading up a small slope. I first took the right and got my knee stuck which twisted it a bit. I didn't seem to be able to free it and was struggling a bit when Aidy behind me pushed my leg up to free it. I then elected to go left over the slab where I'd been before. Over the slab leads to an easy climb to the bottom of the roomy boulder strewn Molluscan Hall and then there's a climb back up again. The right hand way up the slope leads to a ledge higher up and on reaching a large boulder it is safer not to climb over this to the slippy sloping ledge route but to climb down between the boulders on the left to reach the bottom of the chamber before climbing back up again. It's here we sat and had a breather, having some munchies and to get our breath back. ![](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/RMd6TdEgFZUA9IYE5dhcwJS6VXYtJwsXdV4yfvnt.png) *The crawly bit past formations - photo Chris Bolton* Usually, here to help navigation you can normallly hear the stream far below under the boulders of Molluscan but with it being dry for a few days there was nothing but silence. However, under the formations on the left hand wall this is the way down. Sitting down and then lowering oneself to an easy ledge to traverse round descends down further. This is where it gets complicted in finding the way through the boulders to the stream which leads to Dismal Junction. It reminds me of Dow Cave Hobson's Choice in the early days when we had to actually climb up through the boulders and back down again to find black inlet just before climbing up to Depot chamber. So I explored various holes to try and descend to the streamway and failed. Aidy crawled along the top of some boulders as well but still didn't find the way down. However, Aidy did spot a sling but I knew no sling was necessary and it wasn't the way. So finding the weaving spiralling route down through the boulders is there – it was just a matter of finding it. Dan Graham was stood near yet another hole and I elected to go down that one to have a look and it turned out to be the right one twisting down and emerging at the stream and the large boulder that blocks the stream which leads to Dismal Junction. This is the boulder that backs the water up which is why it floods. Not to be attempted in wet weather. Hence the bypass route to get back to County. Just to the right of this boulder some kind soul had marked the beginning of the ascent route with paint which didn't help us at all trying to find the route down. So flat out in the water and shingle to the left of the big boulder which soon went to deeper hands and knees crawling in very cold water which was a shock to the system. However, I felt very considerate that everyone could now have the opportunity to wash off the mud from their – not now clean over suits.The water being so cold I don't think anyone wanted to stay in the water long enough to have a clean. The hands and knees (and deeper water) didn't last long and keeping left ignoring the inlet passage on the right, we carried on flat out over wet shingle and then hands and knees again to eventually to emerge upright in the passage leading to Platypus Junction. Being straightforward from here to exit via Spout Hall and Showerbath passage, I said my farewells to leg it out, except my legs didn't want to go very fast and so I plodded. Aidy was faster than me and was first up the entrance pitch with me being second and Robin third giving me a hand with my tackle bag up the narrow winding bits. I didn't hang about when exiting, I had fish n' chips waiting for me in Skipton. However, as usual walking back over the fell my legs go at a snails pace with me eventually arriving back at the car. Quick change and off I went. I did just make it in time to Skipton. I was so hungry I wanted whale and chips but they didn't have that on the menu. I was thoroughly wrecked and ached all over (not unusual for me) and my right knee kept wanting to fail by giving way and collapsing on me, just to have me prostrate on the ground. Walking downstairs at home I had to go down one step at a time sideways so not to put my weight on it. The following day I put my knee support on and later that Sunday I was back to normal as normal can be for me, skipping like Skippy up and down the stairs. I was still getting few twinges a day or two later but nothing too bad. My thanks to the de riggers and to the members who got everyone out safely. Paul who contacted call out team member Loz on my behalf. I thought it was great circular trip and the Dismal Junction section was all new to me. Now, I need to get my thinking cap on for a route next year but these routes seem to be getting harder. Thank you to everyone who attended and sorry about your suits! Not really. #### Trident Series - Paper Floor - Boulder Chamber [ Print ](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/caves/county-pot/routes/trident-series-paper-floor-boulder-chamber/print) Friday 21st August 2026 – County Pot/Trident Series/Paper Floor Passage/Boulder Chamber Simon Murby and myself Myself and Simon squeezed this trip in as I certainly needed the exercise and cave. It was going to be a quick trip to tie up some lose ends from previous trips. The forecast was not brilliant but didn't really matter in the Trident series unless the weather was exceedingly bad with stormy lashing down torrential rain. As it was on this trip the weather was kind and we saw nothing of rain except for about 3 drops walking back over the fell when we'd finished. So a quick jaunt down County and into Battle of Britain chamber to the passage leading to the Trident series. Battle of Britain is reached via a ledge before the Spout in Spout Hall. The clue is to climb up on the right. There's a white calcite vein running across the stream passage around there to give you a clue. Once on the ledge follow the passage for about ten feet and the passage leading to Battle of Britain is low down on the right hand side. It looks nothing until you get down on your hands and knees to go up. It's well worn and smooth due to traffic. Once in the chamber the passage to Trident is a small climb up on the right and then the passage is low down on the left. Dropping down to the bottom and going left leads to the Manchester by pass. The Trident passage leads to a small boulder slope which you ascend keeping right ignoring a passage on the left. Right at the top you then go left squeezing your legs between a boulder gap and then entering after a few yards to Splash Chamber. The plan was to look at two passages – one on the left and one on the right in Boulder Chamber which didn't get explored the last two times we were in there. It was also new to us going in the opposite direction to what we were used too. The first challenge was climbing down to the scaffold bar from Splash Chamber. Splash chamber was barely a trickle which is always a good sign of the water levels in Trident. Climbing up from the scaffold bar is a struggle but do-able but reversing that process and climbing down feet first was a worry. Solved by Simon in rigging a pull through hand line. With this in place it was actually quite easy and even without the hand line it would have been quite easy. However, better safe than sorry. As you enter Splash Chamber the low crawl and climb down leading to the scaffold bar is at the far end ignoring the previous two passages on the left. ![Splash Chamber](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/EyM6hh72pZbQQi69BFMSUV6M4Tmcp9kiywR8kwgB.webp) Having dropped down into the Whiteline passage stream way we packed our SRT gear into tackle bags for ease of movement in the narrow stream way of Key passage which is on the right before the waterfall dropping into Whiteline Chamber (don't go too far). Although, carrying bags is a pain up the backside at the best of times but we may have needed our SRT gear depending on which way we came back. As you progress up Key passage you eventually come to a split with a slightly drier passage on the right. This is the one you need. Follow this for a few yards until reaching a 'step up' on the left and climb up this. It leads to a small aven with a passage on the right and a passage on the left which again is a small climb up (half a body length). Take the climb up to the left hand passage. It winds around for a few yards and enters yet another roomy area. In the distance is a huge aven and a rope hanging down at the far end. At feet level there is a large letterbox slit which looks down on the drier stream passage you originally came from. Looking this way the passage you need is actually behind you and the start of Paper Floor passage. A remaining piece of the calcite false floor is soon reached. Even though you can easily stretch over it please take care and don't be tempted to walk on it or put any weight on it. Following the passage down it passes some nice taped off formations and if you look up high enough there is an oxbow passage on your left which leads to a little aven and to the same place the main passage shortly leads to. Reaching this little aven/chamber if you look to the left high up you can see the other end of the oxbow. Easily, climbable at either end if one is enthusiastic enough. On the right there is a climb up over some boulders. For Simon and myself this is where we needed to look again for a described passage leading to Boulder Chamber which for the last two previous trips I'd never spotted. Following the obvious passage after climbing up, it closes down to crawling and eventually getting too low for any further progress. So where was this elusive passage? Simon spotted it and it is so non descript I'm not surprised I've previously missed it. It's basically a very small gravelly sloping slot in the floor which you wouldn't think went anywhere. In fact you walk over it as you continue in the main passage. However, sticking one's head down to look it does get larger and looks to go on. Leaving that aside we decided to enter Boulder Chamber and view this passage from the other end if possible. Climbing back down over the boulders and back into the small aven. Boulder Chamber is reached via the right hand ledge above the actual rift passage that leads to the descent of the 7 metre pitch. It's best reached by climbing up again from the aven come small chamber and crawling along carefully and then keeping to the right. It's flat out crawling eventually veering to the right. A word of warning at this point! Just before you veer right to crawl towards Boulder Chamber the ledge is now above the pitch which if you slip and fall doesn't bear thinking about. So be careful. As you flat out crawl on to safer ground away from the ledge, to the right, it opens out and drops – literally into Boulder Chamber. It's a head first controlled dive to gain ones feet and then stand up. It's a big chamber with slippy boulders and some nice straw stalactites on the left wall. On the right is a passage and you can spot some gloopy mud. One of the reasons I never ventured down it even though it sported some nice formations. ![County Pot - Boulder Chamber](https://www.caveinfo.co.uk/storage/TpDu0lnGrhpRVCNsqF2fTDV2FwSn4drad9g7VjQG.webp) In we went for more crawling. As it was the gloopy mud was on the right but by taking the route between two small columns you can miss it. You then crawl over a narrow rift shortly leaving it by keeping right and passing a narrow inlet on the left. A few yards on and you can see the slot from the other end that we viewed previously after the climb up from the small aven and so a through trip can easily be done although it's very short. We turned around and went back the same way as we now wanted to explore the passage on the left from Boulder Chamber. More crawling which passed delicate formations so keeping one's head down Simon being in front reached the end overlooking a 14 metre drop with no way down. So we carefully reversed – there is room to turn around. This passage comes out on the same ledge (if you can rig it to get down) as Whiteway and the passage leading to the 7 metre pitch back up to Paper Floor passage. This ledge is a few feet above the stream way and several metres down from Whiteline Chamber and the waterfalls. Is it worth rigging? No not really as the 7 metre pitch is permanently rigged from paper floor passage. Crawling back out of Boulder Chamber and keeping left until it's safe to drop into the passage and then SRT down the pitch. Follow the passage and it comes out on the ledge as previously described. From that ledge you can drop into the stream and follow it down or go into the Whiteway passage and view the lovely formations which leads to the stream but further down. I won't describe the other options and routes from the stream way in detail in this article. However, you can take a route on the left from the stream way back up to Splash Chamber. You can follow the stream all the way down to a junction. Turning right takes you to Pierces passage and Eureka Junction and before you reach Eureka a right turn into Wretched Rabbit. Before you even get there a climb up out of the stream you can go via Ignorance is Bliss passage back to County although the start of Iggy Bliss from that end is difficult to find if you don't know it. Turning left at the main junction leads to a 7 metre pitch up to Poetic Justice and County although this is not rigged. Some great routes can be had. I digress. As we had achieved what we wanted and for speed, Simon and myself exited the same way as we came in. I huffed and puffed (not unusual for me) up the climb from the scaffold bar and back into Splash Chamber, Battle of Britain and County Pot. Nice and dry when we got out – just as I like it for the plod back to Bull Pot Farm. My Visits --------- No personal visits published for this cave yet. SRT Previews ------------ SRT Previews let you see what a pitch looks like before you enter the cave. **They are not rigging guides, and they are not a how-to. Never rely on them for rigging.** Always go with a competent person who knows how to rig a cave. If you need a rigging topo, use the [CNCC guide.](https://cncc.org.uk/cave/county-pot) #### County Pot 1st Pitch Approx Pitch Length: 8m A nice and simple pitch on the way down, there's a slight squeeze on the way up just before the ledge. A Pantin / foot ascender helps out a lot. The approach to the pitch is a bit tight. If you're in a big group, you can expect to be waiting here for a few minutes. A little further back is a circular area where you can sit and wait. On the second photo, there's a nice ledge you can sit on to attach your descender, which makes it really easy to get yourself sorted and then slide off onto the rope. Overall shouldn't pose any problems for novices.

Only about 2 meters, you could free climb up / down it, but if there's a rope in place you're best off attaching to it. This one is more of a short abseil than anything. Take care as you step over the edge to not smash your knees. This can also be skipped entirely! Just after the first pitch, if you turn right instead of left, there is a quick climb up and a walk round to an even easier way down only a few meters away. If you want to take this route on the way up, its a little more tricky as you have to climb up and straddle a gap across, which is a bit exposed. I'd recommend trying both!
