<p>There are significant ledges and other footholds around for most of the way, which is just as well given the variable quality of the rock. Starting from the pitch-head traverse line, it is possible to climb up onto a large ledge. After around 10m this ledge runs out and the traverse continues as a blank wall for a few metres. A pull up onto a muddy ledge signals the halfway point. Here a muddy tube slopes up to a mud/sand choke [<a href="qm.html#C2003-204-52" id="qC2003-204-52">C2003-204-52 C</a>].</p>

<p>At the NW corner of the shaft, there is a small slot in the wall, where there is a view through boulders but it "seemed unwise" to try to pass through. Three bolts further on it is possible to abseil down onto the target passage's boulder slope. This is the far end of <a href="rhino.html#boltbypass">21 Bolt Bypass</a> in Rhino Rift.</p>
