The passage is coated with lots of fine silt which makes it very difficult ; to stay ahead of the clouds. After a descent to -3 m the passage rises to an airbell 6 m from base. 4 metres beyond is ; another smaller airbell. At 12 m from base in total ("base" means the centre of the just-submerged rock lip where the ; underwater passage goes back under the approach passage) the passage is suddenly blocked by deep silt banks. ; The underwater passage is straight and the trend was recorded as 53 degrees magnetic. ; Becka has used this info to add in some sump legs 1 42 3.00 - down ; sump - descend to -3m 42 43 1.00 330 0 ; to start of lip 43 44 6.00 053 0 ; sump - along to airbell 44 45 6.00 053 0 ; sump - to silt bank *data passage station left right up down ignoreall 1 1.6 0.3 0.7 0.1 small spike on l side of sump pool, opposite low arch on r side of pool and beyond double window where dive line attached - compass is 220 from station 1 to the arch of the sump 2 0.8 0 1.8 0.7 3 0 1.1 0.7 1.6 pencil cross upstream of window 4 0 0.8 1 1 20cm below tip of stalagmite in middle of passage 5 0.8 0.8 0.6 0.2 6 0.5 0.8 0 0.6 7 0.6 1.3 0.8 1.2 8 1.8 0 2 1.8 9 2.5 1.2 4 2 10 0 2.5 4 1.5 11 1.5 1.4 5 1.3 rock next to spike for rope for last pitch (no spits for this) 12 0 2 5 2 on ledge between next 2 pitches (9 and 10?) 13 0.6 0 1.8 5 lower of two pitch head spits (above these two is a back-up spit) 14 0.3 0.4 1.5 1.8 curtain on opposite wall to backup spit 15 0.4 0.1 1.6 0.4 before wet squeeze under calcite 16 0.4 1 1.5 0 on floor just after wet squeeze under calcite blockage and just downstream of large stalagmite 17 1.2 0.7 0 0.9 18 1.5 0.5 0.3 0.3 19 0.4 1.8 0.4 0.2 20 1.6 0.6 0 0.7 21 0.8 0 0.5 0.5 22 0.4 0.4 0.3 1.4 narrowing where need to crawl at floor level 23 0 1 0.2 1.5 numbered in pencil, station 2cm above arrow 24 0.3 1 0.5 1.2 25 1 0.5 0.6 1.2 26 0.8 0.3 0.4 0.8 27 1.3 0.4 0.9 0.5 next to two distinctive stalagmite / curtains on left side 28 0.3 1.5 0.4 0.5 29 0.6 0.8 0 1.1 liquid paper and numbered in pencil in roof, about 2m upstream of false floor with straws which is on the R as you go upstream 30 1.5 0.3 0.3 0.5 31 0.2 1.8 1.3 0.2 32 1 0 1 0.8 now rubbed off, from 32 into inlet at angle of 220 33 1 0 0.4 1.4 on wall directly *opposite* major inlet (not been pushed, needs hammer), numbered in pencil on the calcite 34 0.9 0.9 0 1.3 35 1.2 0 0.5 0.5 36 1.5 0.2 0.4 0.2 37 0.1 1 0.6 0.3 38 1.3 0.2 0.5 1.5 39 2.2 0 0.4 2.5 40 1.4 0 3 6 as descend, the l wall spit of y-hang for pitch - a step below the single spit backup 41 0 2.5 5 1.8 up at least 5m, likely more; stn 41 is a small spike on the l wall of passage shortly after pitch *end Large3
