MITES UP, TITES DOWN!

MITES UP, TITES DOWN!

All speleologists, plus most schoolchildren, will tell you that stalagmites go up, and stalactites do gown.



Above is a photo of a potholer. At last, we now know what potholers get up to in caves!

But is he photographed with a stalagmite or a stalactite?

It seems neither up nor down, maybe it was down before and up after the photograph was taken!

Perhaps he is the first caver to have found a stalagtite (or stalacmite), or perhaps the cave has released his bisexual urges.

And what do you call a stalactite that is joined with a stalagmite?

Have you ever been potholing?

I've been in the occasional dark, damp cavern

I hope you were suitably attired with safety in mind. Caving can be dangerous!

Maybe it'll be on your to-do list knowing what can be found down there! x
