Possum's Eel Cave

This place had to be up there with the prettiest brick drains I have visited, and it's a real hidden little gem without a spot of graffiti, which I thought was just awesome. Besides the odd brick waiting to come loose and crush your skull, and sounds of thunderous impending doom, it provided for a great explore. Or is that because of?...

Accommodator

Having not ventured under for months since the last adventure went decidedly pear shaped, and flashing lights and pools of blood had put the fear of god into me. It was a tad difficult to make the decision to delve under again.

Looking for places to go at high tide, in a city that bends around a river that shortly arrives at its destination, makes for a little challenge.

Acoustic Terrors

Tired and sore footed, I emptied my shoes and socks of sand from Checkmate, while we looked at the high tide coming into Batcave, making our entry there impossible. We decided to have a look at a few places close by, then head for a Dsanktuary entrance in the hopes tide would not foil us there also.

Hide and Seek

Hidden infrastructure fascinates me, it's the unseen cogs that drives the world around us, but to most people bobbing along through life, it goes completely unnoticed, and even when noticed, ignored.

Finding images like this from our southern neighbours got me thinking, where does Brisbane hide its underground arteries?

Power Drain

This was the first drain I explored and it's choice was mostly down to its convenience and lack of possible onlookers. There wasn't anything particularly interesting inside, but that didn't matter, it was a first and an experience to remember.

Sweet Dreams are Made of These

These shops were a neighborhood fixture, but everything has its time, and theirs was up. New developers planning a clean new shopping centre had decided to buy out all the small operators that made this warren of mostly old converted houses to erect the future.

At last Aquacave!

I finally got an evening to go for a bit of an explore, so I called an acquaintance I had not met up with before and he agreed, himself and a friend would like to come have a bit of a photo session in a drain called Toadie.

Sneaking About

The last time I came here I was a lot less nervous, but still didn't get all the way to the top, as I figured in daylight, I would be a curiosity wandering about on the skyline, which may attract the wrong sort of attention.
