North East, a phreatic passage can be accessed by a traverse. This leads to a 19m pitch and a large wet chamber called the Urinal (named due to the smell of p** during exploration).

A traverse has been rigged along the right side wall, with the intension of either A) traversing half way round the chamber and dropping it to find the

If you instead drop to the bottom of seventh pitch, you drop into Toto chamber (So-called because of the large, solidly-perched boulder in the shape of Africa you land on). The rift passage level with this boulder leads to crystal crumble, where a canyon (probably the one below Freattic Flys) enters from one end of a latge chamber and sinks into a boulder pile at the other end.

Odious Odium continues the phreatic passage and decends the rift when neccessary with eighth pitch (6m) and ninth pitch (5m).

Ninth pitch is a one-bolt-wonder which puts you into a large junction on a cemented rock floor which continues both North and South. Turning North/Right leads toward Ulysses, whilst South/Right takes you to Shit Show.</p>

<p>Ulysses is a very large chamber, roughly 20 metres in diameter, and of currently unknown depth (but expected to be greater than 50 metres). The walls

around the chamber are prtty crap, and the entire funnel-shaped floor is loose scree.

The whole of Ulysses itself is excessively crumbly, and likely no amount of gardening will make the chamber "safe". It may connect into the known cave below, and requires <i>very</i> careful descent if dropped.
|

|
|

|
A traverse has been rigged along the right side wall, to reach a rift that enters opposite the initial point of approach. This leads to Choleric Chamber, where there are two waterfall chambers (one of which was dry in 2018) which connect into a narrow rift in the floor.

The Ulysses traverse could be continued another 10m around to a ~15m bolt-climb up to very promising (if true) train-tunnel phreatic.</p>
