@ -177,13 +177,24 @@ stream level rapidly becomes tight again, but a traverse line across, <b><a
id="nordic">Nordic Traverse</a></b>, gives access to a dry fossil passage to
the head of <b><a id="thirteenyear">Thirteen Year Pitch</a></b> (7m), which
drops into a spacious dry chamber. Here a tight and scrofulous-looking rift
leads off to the right (QM 04-XXX C), while the chosen way on is to descend
leads off to the right
[<a href="qm.html#C2004-204-03" id="qC2004-204-03">C2004-204-03 C</a>]
, while the chosen way on is to descend
<b><a id="pepper">Pepper Pot</a></b> (20m) back to stream level. Here the
passage returns to familiar rifty crappiness for a few metres; it is helpful to
take a relatively high level for a while until the passage widens again, at
which point a 6m pitch, <b><a id="paster">Paster of Muppets</a></b>, regains
the stream level. At this point there is a convenient widening at a level that
gradually ascends to the head of <i>yet another</i> pitch (QM 04-XX); it is
the stream level. Shortly afterwards, the stream can be followed down to the top
of a short wet drop
[<a href="qm.html#C2004-204-02" id="qC2004-204-02">C2004-204-02 B</a>]
or a phreatic widening can be followed upwards. This leads to some key hole
passage, which imediately has a large circular pit in the floor, this canbe
descended and the other side can be climbed, preferably with lines. The
phreatic part of the passage then takes advantage of a sloping weakness, which
goes up and to the left. This can be followed to a right hand bend where the
floor drops down with the weakness to <i>yet another</i> pitch
[<a href="qm.html#C2004-204-01" id="qC2004-204-01">C2004-204-01 B</a>]
; it is
noticeable on the survey that from the bottom of Paster the passage swings
southwards away from the consistent NE-SW alignment of most of Razordance.</p>

crawl through an eye-hole to a bolted Y-hang provides the main hang for

Tri-Hang pitch descends beyond a small ledge which has a bolted deviation level
with the ledge down to a small puddle. Here wellies and jammers should be
washed clean of mud prior to ascent (washing-up brush left there in 2004 for

pitch (p25). This descends via awkward rigging (not perfected in 2004) to a
ledge in a moderately large chamber. From this ledge the University Challenge
pitch (p15) descends to land partway down the large, confusing Subsoil Chamber.
<p>The landing is on a narrow rubble floor; a few metres ahead the floor drops away again, and another pitch, <b><a id="univchallenge">University Challenge</a></b> (12m), descends past an interesting hollow boulder to land in the <a href="#subsoil">Subsoil Series</a>.</p>

Daves description edited out to put in Beckas.
<p>Emerging from the short muddy crawl reveals a walking passage. Right leads
quickly to a climb up and traverse back over the existing passage,
<b><a id="generation">The Generation Game</a></b>, explored by Becka.</p>
<p>Left leads shortly to a bend in the passage and a steep downwards slope
floored with crumbly mud; spits are in place for a traverse line, since
slipping would mean a long fall. After a few metres is a pitch,
<b><a id="gardenersworld">Gardener's World</a></b> (26m), which slopes awkwardly
and has been subjected to a variety of rigs, none of them ideal!</p>
