<h2>Lemon Snout</h2>
|

|

After climbing up to the entrance, Lemon Snout appears as a tall, narrow rift passage with a rocky floor. A short way in the passage turns sharply left then right, with an awkward boulder to scramble around on the second corner. The rift continues sloping gently upward, after a short while the floor drops about a meter and it is advisable to continue by traversing on the obvious footholds.

<h2>Chasm passage</h2>
|

|

After natural high, an up rope to the right hand side is followed

uphill to the right. Stompy sandy passage follows to a ledge. The far

side of the hole connects to the main trade route from the entrance.

|

<h2>Leeds Bypass</h2>
|
||||
|

Left at the top of the rope from Natural highs leads to big stomping
|

passage to the Leeds Bypass. The passage splits into a loop; the right
|
||||
is taped off. The left slopes down (increasingly slippy). The next
|
||||
right regains the loop and the next left is a downhill continuation of
|
||||
the sdame sort of thing with a floor trench. Its getting a bit
|
||||
slippy. A turn off on the left hand side (1 x 1m hole in thew left

hand wall) leads to the Dark Arts.

The main stretch of the darks arts in tall and narrow. It includes an

<b>New version written on 2018 training weekend - needs merging</b>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Start of Hiltiaplenty</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Accessed by turning left into low passage immediately after a short
|
||||
traverse past a deep hole on the main route away from the bottom of
|
||||
the entry series pitches. The passage continues as an easy crawl over
|
||||
dry, sandy mud. After a relatively short distance the passage reached
|
||||
a t-juction of almost standing height. Right leads to increasingly
|
||||
cramped and bouldery crawls whilst left almost immediately
|
||||
reaches <a href="hiltiaplenty.html">Hiltaplenty pitch</a>.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Hiltiaplenty pitches</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Includes a Y hang with deviation near the top, followed by 4 belays
|
||||
and two deviations. In 2017 it was left rigged. Below the pitches, the
|
||||
left leads to a loop. Right leads to a chamber, left around a centre
|
||||
pile of boulders. (Straight on through the chamber leads to a sandy
|
||||
floored passage, down the slope leads to a dead end.) The passage
|
||||
bears right, but the way on is under the left hand wall in a brief low
|
||||
sandy crawl. It soon opens up again into a upperwards, wide, sloping
|
||||
meander. Right again follows crawling and stooping passage to a T
|
||||
junction with a 1.5m climb down. From there right leads to to Nothing
|
||||
To See. Left leads to a muddy passage, the first hole on the right
|
||||
hand side is the pitch to Bat Country. If your carry on past Bat
|
||||
country, you get to another pitch on the right with also continues in
|
||||
the Bat Country pitch. This is not rigged. Beyond this, it gets to an
|
||||
aven, that has not been deemed worth climbing.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Nothing To See </h2>
|
||||
|
||||
Becka Lawson officially deemed this shit. Horizontal maze gives many pitches that drop into Galatica.
|
||||
Mud formations and cave pearls abound.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Bat Country</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
Bat Country pitch is 40m with a rebelay half way down, rigged off a
|
||||
natural back up. This lands into a spikey rift where the way on is
|
||||
down hill (back on yourself), following a muddy crawl. Right at the T
|
||||
junction follows down hill, turn off this passage left. Follow to a
|
||||
ledge, P15, broken up by rebelays. This chamber follows a central
|
||||
ridge to the far wall to meet a traverse to the right hand side. This
|
||||
was derigged in 2017. A steep sandy floor goes left to the head of
|
||||
another pitch (25m). Leads to obvious continuation. Galactical is a
|
||||
small, obscure, narrow opening in a right hhand wall.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Galatica</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
A rigging guide is available for Galactica. Large chamber,
|
||||
approximately 15 x 45 x 40m, floor covered in boulders. Left leads to
|
||||
sandy slope to roof. At bottom of pitch series, along the right hand
|
||||
wall leads to a narrow and drippy rift that became too tight. At the
|
||||
far right of the chamber, (derigged) a short wet pitch leads to a
|
||||
small chambe. There is a very drippy wet way on.
