<underground_description>Horizontal entrance at base of small cliff at head of dry valley, leads over peaty infill to a pitch head. Cross first hole and descend second, 30m to large chamber. To left is unsurveyed inlet ending too small, while to right is head of very steeply descending phreatic-tube-like pitch of 15m vertically (20m+ of rope). This is a little thrutchy to start, but opens out, and ends in a short climb.</p><div class="centre"><a name="p2" href="/1623/others/l/87-1.htm"><img alt="(mono photo - 63k)" src="/1623/others/t/87-1.jpg" width="134" height="200" /></a> Head of Second pitch <a href="/1623/others/l/87-2.htm"><img alt="(mono photo - 41k)" src="/1623/others/t/87-2.jpg" width="134" height="200" /></a></div><p>A further 15m pitch follows, hanging clear of a wall made up mainly of boulders.
