Notes

Written by Scaife: Xander and I joined Ali Neill in this excellent cave for some surveying. The 17m entrance pitch was descended with the aid of a deviation from a tree, and led into a huge entrance passage and, via several chambers and a crawl, into a part of the cave that needed re-surveying. We climbed a couple of unexplored avens, which both led nowhere, and found, up a short climb just beyond the crawl, an un-surveyed passage to explore the next day.
