Oompah
Oompah starts as a boulder floored passage that heads west and downhill from Ribs with Knödel for 10m to a crossroads. South leads to Apfelstrudel. West leads to a window onto a 12m pitch accessed by heading north. North begins as a steeply descending ramp, quickly leading to the 12m pitch on the left. Straight ahead at this point leads to a 3m pitch into Loompah.
The 12m pitch lands in an 8x6m chamber. There is a possible way on halfway down the pitch in the south wall (traverse or climb required to access) [QM 1325-1 C] and a possible dig in the southwest corner of the chamber [QM 1325-2 D]. To the north, a 3m climb up gains access to a further pitch of 17m that lands in a rift. Upstream ends in a clean washed aven. Downstream leads to a series of boulder climbs with no way on (possible dig) [QM 1325-3 D].
Loompah
The 3m pitch from Oompah lands in a rift passage with a floor trench. North leads to a further undescended pitch of ~6m [QM 08-22 A] and an upward sloping shute [QM 08-23 B]. East the passage continues with a thin rift in the ceiling [QM 08-21 A]. [SURVEY SHOWS A POOL, UNCLEAR FROM ORIGINAL NOTES IF THIS IS REAL OR A ROCK PILLAR]
