Summary

In June of 1967, ten people journeyed into the Mossdale Caverns, a cave system known for being dangerous and unexplored. These caver's mission was to explore unmapped passages and reveal new caving systems. When thunderstorms and torrential down pours suddenly flood the tunnels, the largest rescue mission in Britain's history ensues.Tickets to Spirited Stays: The Crescent Hotel HERE!
