A short movie taken by Yann Pierre Montelle to Harwoods hole cave in April 2011. Although not the clearest movie, this will give you some idea of the 173 metre abseil into the cave and the sheer beauty once you are in the cave itself. Stunningly clear water and great formations are abundant. YP filmed this using his Scurion K for light, and I am sure you will agree that without the BBC backing you, it is not easy to film in caves. Thanks for your movie YP I look forward to seeing more.
