Description

How Big is Big?

How big is that chamber we found? Cavers always want to know such things, but the answer isn’t that easy to come by. Do you work with area or volume, and just which is the largest chamber in the world, anyway?

A Challenge for All Cavers

The Upper Wharfedale Fell Rescue Association helps cavers and others in times of need. Now, they need your support.

Explorer of the Sunless Sea

We say farewell to one of the world’s legendary cavers: Mike Boon.

Before Xanadu

We have some exciting news that ties together a classic poem with the final resting place of a Mongol leader: Genghis Khan.

Tales of the Unexplained

An expedition to the caves of Mulu in 2014 found some strange speleothems, so now the discoverers want to learn more of how they were formed.

The Pit and the Storm

Even after being travelled by cavers for years, there are still secrets to find, new routes to discover in our more popular caves.

Write it down!

Inspired by Fell

A.E. Morgan remembers some of the good days, now long gone, that he spent with friends such as Jack Fell.

A Recce to Rift Pot

When two cavers checked the anchors in Rift Pot, they didn’t expect the trip to end with a serious self-rescue. Here’s how the day went.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR EU CUSTOMERS

On 1 July 2021 the EU removed all exemptions for tax and customs duty on low-value items posted from the UK to the EU, meaning that although VAT is 0% on books and magazines in the UK, it is charged within the EU and the VAT (potentially plus a handling fee) now applies to all orders to the EU.

All small publishers in the UK are now in the same position – we are unable to post any items to the EU with VAT or other duties paid.

When ordering any item from Stalactite Publishing, including a Descent subscription, you accept responsibility for paying the VAT and any other local charges on delivery.

Stalactite Publishing is not able to cover any charges levied by your country; it is your responsibility to accept these when placing an order.

We apologise for this situation, but please understand that it is outside our control.
