<p>Beyond the fine traverse of Caramel Catharsis a large sandy passage slopes
gently down to a junction. Ahead is a stoop leading though into the Littoral North.
</p>
<p>The Littoral North leads northwards out of the chamber below Caramel
Catharsis past taped formations on the floor. The roof lowers and the sandy
passage continues to a further taped formation. There is a branch to the
left here [to be described]. The main way is through a low arch to a
3m climb down in a rift below an aven, which
can be climbed far enough to see that it probably doesn't go. At the bottom
is a wide stony passage with a pool useful for collecting water. There
are ways on to the left and straight ahead.
<p>To the left a passage leads almost immediately to a tricky climb
(rope recommended)
up to
the right. This gains a further muddy passage, which draughts inwards
strongly, leading after about 50 metres to a balcony at the
head of the 100m
deep pitch <b>The Usual Suspects</b>. This pitch is wet, and
is impassible in times of high water (a party was marooned beneath it in
2009), and is now superceded by the route via
<b>String Theory</b>. Across the pitch head may be seen a window accessible
via the route to String Theory.
<p>Back in the passage to the left, following straight ahead without taking
the tricky climb to the right
leads to a stepped pitch <b>Frankly Freezing</b> [description needed].
