around 50m; the first section slopes slightly, but after 30m it straightens
out. The resulting rub point was protected in 2006 by an extremely tenuous
deviation off a flake; when better bolting equipment is available, a traverse
to a rebelay on the far wall would be very much preferable. <i>Shortly below
the final hang bolt, there is a slot in the wall leading back underneath the
jammed boulders into a chamber. This was not explored due to lack of time, but
it appears to have a floor, with a narrow slot in one side which may correlate
with another slot visible further down the pitch. [<a

climb up and over a pile of boulders (probably needs protecting with a rope in
future, as the pile looks liable to fall down the pitch without much
provocation!) to continue the descent; a spit at the top of the boulder pile
provides backup, and a second low down on the pitch gives a
just-about-tolerable hang. A deviation off a huge anvil-shaped projection of
rock moves the rope out to a better position, allowing a landing on a ledge
around 5m down. This is the limit of exploration so far; from here, the shaft
can be seen to widen out to one side (beneath the slot at the base of the
previous pitch), and a rebelay would allow a descent of perhaps 20m to the
floor. A slot in the floor seems to herald more pitches to come. [<a
