<h3>Guidebook description</h3>
<p>This is the last thing to do for a new cave.
The rigging guide sections will have been written into the logbook, and the passage descriptions will
have been written into the survex files, with more lyrical descriptions written into the logbook for each trip.
<p>Write a <b>passage descriptions</b> by copying and extending the descriptions
given in all the component .svx files.
<p>This should be detailed enough to be
followed by someone in the cave who hasn't been there before, and should
include all passage names, lengths of pitches and climbs, compass directions
when this makes left/right/ahead clearer. See If your passage is a connection
it is worth while writing descriptions from both directions. You will eventually copy the collected descriptions
into the online system using the<a href="newcave.html">"New Cave" form</a> but for now just ensure that you
have it all collected together.
<p>In
written descriptions, underline passage names the first time they are
mentioned, or when they are "defined".</p>
<p>
You will type this description, and pass it on to someone more nerdy who
will file it in the right place. This will involve "creating a new cave" using the <a href="../troggle/trogintro.html">troggle</a> system.
<p>Complementing the passage description in vertical bits is a <b>Rigging
Guide</b>. Keep notes on this as it is the next step after drawing up the survey.
