<p>At the end of <b>Flowstone Canyon</b> a 16m pitch drops to PT25 in the <b>Sound of Water</b> with a large aven above. <i>At the top of this 16m pitch a short traverse to the left leads to easy, walking passage that ends at a continuing rift with a waterfall (QMA). This lead may just drop into nearby <b> Alpine Showers </b> but it needs to be definitively checked out. </i></p>
<p>At PT25 in the <b>Sound of Water</b> the way on is right up the slope to a broken (16m then 10m) 27m pitch that lands at PT26. <i><b>Peculiar Pot</b> enters from a rift a few metres down this pitch whilst left at PT25 quickly loops around to overlook <b>Alpine Showers</b>. From the bottom of the pitch at PT26, right (upstream) leads to a waterfall (bolt climbing required).</i> From PT26, turning left (downstream) is <b>Alpine Showers</b>. This follows a tall, narrow, winding rift to two small pitches beside waterfalls (care needed to keep away from water as levels can rise rapidly). This leads to a traverse and another pitch. The streamway is rejoined but soon drops away again and the roof of the rift lowers to a traverse and then a 20m pitch that drops you down to <b>Paradise Lost</b>.</p>

<p> In <b>Paradise Lost</b>, from the bottom of the p20, there is a 4m pitch. From here <i>left leads to a QMC which could perhaps bypass the duck.</i> whilst right goes along a traverse that descends several small pitches and down climbs and twists around to eventually end at a ~10m long, draughting duck. Pursuing this QMA would require neoprene and enthusiasm for cold misery.</p>
