Rejoining Ned, he had practically finished the traverse line around the pitch and was in the middle of trying to garden the entrance to the window. One huge deliberate boulder fall and a couple more bolts later and he was in, soon after proclaiming “There is a stonking draught! Its practically bowing my hair”. In the surveying groups excitement, we hastily popped a station on the traverse line, one at the bottom of the pitch and at the window, continuing from there. We were immediately greeted by another popcorn stalactite, which we carefully avoided and continued to shoot legs down the passage. Ned at this point had buggered off to find more passage, leaving us to survey, which we did until the ceiling lowered to a belly crawl, so we decided to give up (cave phone dying was also a factor) so we could explore ourselves. Preceding the crawl the passage opened up, leading into wider stoopinf passage with funky black dots on the ground, which lead to the fitting name of “a bugs life”. At the end of this passage we were faced with a calcited climb on the left and a rocky crawl straight on. Taking the straight path, it ended in a rather large pitch, taking a rock 6s to reach the bottom (pinging off the sides), bingo! We needed to slash some height to have any chance of connecting to KH, so this was extremely promising!

Shortly after we swiftly headed out, leaving Ned to replace the pulses with through bolts on the popper pitch series, and soon enough we were all back at topcamp in time for a curry.
