After a few minutes, you enter high-up into a large canyon. Traverse along the wall until you reach first pitch.

Right of the pitch is another meandering passage. Following this for roughly 15m the floor drops out, and you reach sixth pitch (Liquid Luck).</p>

<p>Liquid Luck is a roughly 25m pitch that drops onto a ledge, surrounded by canyon. The chamber is large and fairly drippy, with some small inlets high-up.

North East, a phreatic passage can be accessed by a traverse. This leads to a 19m pitch and a large wet chamber called the Urinal (named due to the smell of p** during exploration). This is the point where lots of smaller streams connect into the main canyon of the area. The ceiling extends ~20m and an inlet is expected to connect

<p>Freeattic Flys continues along for 30m, passing intricate coral-looking formations and a multitude of dead flys.
|

The rifting, meandering passage leads to several awkward free climbs down. Eventually you get to seventh pitch (5m) that drops into a ledge halfway down, with the continuation called Odious Odium going South East on a traverse line.
|
||||
If you instead drop to the bottom of seventh pitch, you drop into Toto chamber (So-called because of the large, solidly-perched boulder in the shape of Africa you land on). The rift passage level with this boulder leads to crystal crumble, where a canyon (probably the one below Freattic Flys) enters from one end of a latge chamber and sinks into a boulder pile at the other end.

Ninth pitch is a one-bolt-wonder which puts you into a large junction on a cemented rock floor which continues both North and South. Turning North/Right leads toward Ulysses, whilst South/Right takes you to Shit Show.</p>
