Notes

Was quite wet so rigged all the drops, the second pitch was quite interesting to rig. The first drop was still climbable. Once down pitch 4, we went up the new rope and explored a the two passages. The first was a tall rift leading to about a 6m (broken) climb into a short crawl leading to a rift, this is meant to be the bypass route but the rift was about 6inches wide, not certain if one could fit through it,or maybe I was feeling fat. When Dan and John were going up the 4th pitch I explored the other series and after and easish squeeze got through to the second pitch. The spiral thing I think is below (so a 3rd pitch) but the description is not clear.
