<p>Past a pillar the passage opens up into a high wide chamber with a deep canyon in the floor, largely covered by boulders. At the start of the chamber a rapidly-lowering passage goes back right for 8m before being choked with sand. At the far end of the chamber you step over the canyon [2007-258-09-A] and have to clamber over some very nice flowstone to proceed. The obvious way on is walking passage but in fact the passage goes at two levels here - you can also climb down below the flowstoned chockstone and follow the canyon upstream to get to the same chamber.</p>
<p>Following the obvious higher level brings you into another chamber with a deep hole in the floor [2007-258-10-A] , mostly blocked by a large jammed boulder. Traversing around the left hand side reaches a 3m climb down to the far side of the hole. This is <strong>Petticoat Junction</strong> where there is a choice of left towards <strong>Let's get Nacked</strong> or ahead across rocks and uphill to <strong>Hedonism Highway</strong>.</p>

<h2>Hedonism Highway</h2>
Very high rocky passage uphill with monster draft (considering passage size) blowing out. This whole passage is formed on a bedding plane sloping at about 25 degrees from horizontal, so everywhere is walkable but quite steeply sloping. A tricky c2 over a block reaches a sandy hading chamber. Going across to the left reaches a very wide, bedding-aligned area with a choice of routes upwards either side of a pillar. [2007-258-11-A] is a passage off to the left. At the top of the wide bit the passage reverts to a phreas with a deep canyon which is largely inaccessibly-narrow. It is at least 8m deep and there are a couple of points one could get in [2007-258-12-C].</p>
<p>Climbing over a large boulder the passage widens due to a junction. The passage goes off left upwards [2007-258-13-A], as does the canyon, and another goes off left downwards [2007-258-14-A].</p>
<p>Climbing over a large boulder the passage widens due to a junction. The passage goes off left upwards [2007-258-13-A], as does the canyon, and another goes off left downwards [2007-258-14-A]. The passage continues steeply up-dip and gets bouldery. There are a couple of huge dropped sections of rock that have been undercut and split from the roof. On the left is a small alcove passage. Next a small cross-passage roof tube. Neither of these go. The draught remains strong, blowing out. The passage turns 90 left to go along the dip. A strongly draughting small passage comes in fro the right at the corner. Hedonism highway gets boulderier and closes down over the next 60m. This point may be quite close to the surface.</p>
