<P>From the crossroads, the main route in 1999 was straight ahead, downhill in mostly stooping height passage with a short section of sandy crawling. After 15m is a short climb down to the top of a 4m deep pit with a too-tight passage at the bottom, with the phreatic passage continuing to the right. After a further 10m the passage is intersected by a large rift with a big rock partially blocking the passage. Climbing up to the right leads back into a tall rift in

the <A href="#nearside">side passages</A>. A climb up to the left leads to a passage containing attractive white mud which was not entered, however a visual connection to the <A href="midlevel.shtml#pendulum">Pendulum Pitch</A> was established.

<P>Straight ahead leads to a further junction after 15m. Left opens out to the head of <A href="midlevel.shtml#pendulum">Pendulum Pitch</A>, the main route to the bottom of <A href="midlevel.shtml#wolp">Wolpertinger Way</A> used in 1999. Right leads to a narrow stooping height passage which continues for 25m with several clear pools in the floor to a widening. Around the widening, most routes ahead and to the left are choked with boulders. There are two ways on: down over a few boulders leds to the previously concealed short pitch towards Pleasuredome, while on the right a body sized tube leads upwards for ~15m before twisting left into a low chamber 'Kidneybean'. Kidneybean, perhaps an enlarged bedding plane, has possible QMs in a hole in the floor [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-71" name=qC2000-204-71>C2000-204-71 C</A>] and in a narrow passage at the nothern corner of the chamber [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-70" name=qC2000-204-70>C2000-204-70 B</A>]. Round to the left it is bounded by an area of breakdown, possibly the far side of a boulder choke visible from the widening. Back at the entrance Kidneybean, the main way on continues through a low gap. This opens to stooping height and winds upwards. The passage continues over some old gower pools to a flat out section (not really a squeze, except for lardarses) not pushed, but running water could be heard [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-69" name=qC2000-204-69>C2000-204-69 A</A>].
