Back at the water collecting pool, to the left (west) a passage leads almost immediately to a tricky climb (rope recommended) up to the right. This gains a further large walking passage, which draughts inwards strongly, leading after about 50 metres to a balcony at the head of the 100m deep pitch The Usual Suspects. Two bolts on the left just before the passage starts to head steeply downhill start the traverse line approach to the pitch head. This pitch is broken by a large ledge at -70m, and the descent from this side is drippy in the dry and more than drippy in the wet - a better rig is required. In 2009 the hang was from two 1-bolt rebelays in rapid succession, with 3 rebelays and a bolt deviation to reach the ledge. The y-hang on the right at the ledge is sub-optimal, the furthest bolt can be extended with a sling to avoid an immediate rub and a bolt deviation 5m down clears the wall - but not the water when it rains
WARNING: Usual Suspects is impassible in times of high water (a party was marooned beneath it in 2009), and is now superceded by the route via String Theory. Across the pitch head may be seen a window accessible via the route to String Theory.
INCOMPLETE (need to incorporate existing description in usualsuspects.html on website).
