<p><b>Watershed</b> continues for over 100m as a significant streamway with some
unusually impressive speleothems for the Totes Gebirge. This section
is reminiscent of the great stream caves of the Mendip Hills until
-the water begins to cut down into a trench in the floor. At this
- point progress is made by climbing up and traversing at roof level in a phreatic tube above the deep rift. This traverse may be at PT23 or at PT24 where ?2019-7B is marked. The initial climb up is at a 90 degree right hand bend followed around 10m later by another climb up at the 90 degree left hand bend. This passage continues to be finely decorated.

At this point progress is made by climbing up and traversing at roof level in a phreatic tube above the deep rift. <b>Is traverse at PT23 or at PT24 where ?2019-7B is marked?</b> The initial climb up is at a 90 degree right hand bend which is followed, around 10m later, by another climb up at the 90 degree left hand bend. This passage continues to be finely decorated. Towards the end of the traverse, two more challenging sections are protected by bolted handlines. <b>Watershed</b> eventually reaches a T-junction at PT25. R here immediately arrives at a large, wet pitch, <b>Peculiar Pot</b>, whilst to the L the phreas continues in the direction of <b>Flowstone Canyon</b>.</p>
<h3>Beyond Watershed: Flowstone Canyon and Peculiar Pot to Alpine Showers and on to Paradise Lost</h3>
-<p><i>Heading R for ~10m from PT25 at the end of <b>Watershed</b>, descend a p20, <b>Peculiar Pot</b>. At its base, flattened ground can sleep 3 comfortably and 4 at a squeeze - used in 2024. Continuing down another small pitch leads to a narrow rift that continues to <b>Perverse Passage </b>where a few short pitches allow you to rejoin the main route in <b>Sound of Water</b>. The route to here from Flowstone Canyon is better as less rope is required.</i></p>

<p>Going L at the end of <b>Watershed</b> at PT25 enters <b>Flowstone Canyon</b>. This has holes to the left and right but the main route descends steeply down a narrow rift with some fairly awkward, thrutchy down climbs. <i>The holes to the right all join except one QMC which likely just connects to <b>Peculiar Pot</b>. The hole to the left appears to still be an open lead, QMB, in a rift that needs bolting for protection. Beyond these holes, a climb up leads to <b> Portcullis Passage </b>, a loose, sandy passage which follows the top of <b>Flowstone Canyon</b> before dropping back into it.</i></p>
