# 1623/87: second pitch

The second pitch of 1623/87 starts as a small hole following a steeply dipping roof tube where the floor of the entrance chamber is almost choked by boulders. The second bolt is just before the pitch starts to open out and drop below this tube. Nick Thorne is seen here on the thrutchy top section of the pitch about to reach the bolt.
