[QUOTE="Metamorphic, post: 197893, member: 3682"] Reading the ground lads is all important. Not only looking at cap rock and vegatation, but also being able to spot the area your in as a whole picture. Are you in a syncline gully or are you walking upslope towards an anticline summit? Can you see large mullock displays usually evident in shafting and therefore stoping? Can you spot dipping ground due too sliding overlay around areas that may hide unstable cover? Any evidence of old, worn down barrier protection moved out of place from days gone by? Always lift your eyes from the coil every few minutes and not only pick your path of forward movement, but learn to interpret what that path its trying to tell you. Stay safe out there lads. ;) [/QUOTE]
