+<p>On the left, from the southern base of Subsoil Chamber, a 1.8m climb up a mud
+bank leads to a mud-floored passage that enters Hippo Hollows. This section of
+passage has a series of small, attractive pots floored with cracked mud (CARE -
+traverse above the pots). Straight on after the pots, the passage ends in a
+rift and <b><a id="chalkcheese">Chalk and Cheese</a></b> pitch. <i>Before this

+</i> The main way on is opposite this high mud bank. Here, on the right near
+the bottom of the canyon, a short traverse (two spits and a natural EARL? <!--
+Artificial Earls just don't cut it --> and a 12m rope) over a large, loose mud
+bank gains access up to a large walking passage, Earthenware. This drafts out
+strongly and continues north, horizontally, for 100m. Earthenware initially

+up [<a href="qm.html#C2004-204-28" id="qC2004-204-28">C2004-204-28 A</a>].

+id="stoneware">Stoneware</a></b>. Stoneware leads steeply down and narrows from
