<P><B>No Pain No Gain</B> is a low tube, which emerges to a mud-floored chamber.  (Please try not to disturb the remaining flow patterns in the mud).  A crawly mud floored passage leaves the chamber to the right.  To the right near the end of the crawl is a bedding plane that continues uphill [<A 
href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-01" name=qC2000-204-01>C2000-204-01 B</A>], whilst to the left is a small stone floored pit.  There is a 2m climb up from the top of the pit.  This has a stalactite formation at the top on the right, and threads on the left where a sling may be attached to assist.  The crawl then continues to a junction with two connecting passages to the left [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-02" name=qC2000-204-02>C2000-204-02 B</A>] and two connecting passages to the right [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-03" name=qC2000-204-03>C2000-204-03 C</A>].  The passage then continues to a T junction where it enlarges slightly.  To the right is [<A 
href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-04" name=qC2000-204-04>C2000-204-04 C</A>].  To the left there is a chamber that is intersected by a tight rift with flowing water.  Downstream is [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-05" name=qC2000-204-05>C2000-204-05 C</A>].  Upstream a key hole passage slopes upwards, to a T-junction with a chamber to the right, and an short, almost flat-out crawl to the left.

The chamber, which has an aven [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-55" name=qC2000-204-55>C2000-204-55 X</A>], can be dropped into.  A rift at the other end of the chamber leads to a waterfall which feeds the stream that runs through the chamber.  Climbing up before the rift gives access to a crawl [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-06" name=qC2000-204-06>C2000-204-06 C</A>].   The flat out crawl emerges to a small angular chamber, at the top of which, to the right, is a hole [<A 
href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-07" name=qC2000-204-07>C2000-204-07 C</A>].  To the left a low passage runs above a 4m drop [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-08" name=qC2000-204-08>C2000-204-08 B</A>].  This then turns right and continues to a fork in the passage.  To the left is <B>Insignificant Chamber</B>, and to the right is a smaller chamber with a hole in the floor, windows to <B>Insignificant Chamber</B>, and a bedding plane continuing up at 10&deg;, which again connects into <B>Insignificant Chamber</B>.

<P><B>Insignificant Chamber</B> can be entered at floor level from <B>No Pain No Gain</B>.  It extends to a passage on the left as one enters, where there are a number a interconnecting holes on the right [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-58" name=qC2000-204-58>C2000-204-58 C</A>].  Upslope from the entrance is a bedding plane which splits left to <B>Bonsai Crawl</B> on the left and to [<A 
href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-09" name=qC2000-204-09>C2000-204-09 B</A>] on the right.  To the right upon entering Insignificant Chamber one can climb upto a point above the small chamber in <B>No Pain No Gain</B>.  From here there is a phreatic tube[<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-57" name=qC2000-204-57>C2000-204-57 C</A>] that can be probably be reached with the aid of a traverse line.  The passage continues climbing ever upward [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-56" 
name=qC2000-204-08>C2000-204-56 B</A>].  The passage to the left from Insignificant Chamber gets smaller and meets a crossroads.  To the left is a walking size passage with a small pit in the floor that continues to a large pitch [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-10" name=qC2000-204-10>C2000-204-10 A</A>], thought to drop into Pleasuredome.  Straight on the passage turns to a steeply sloping pitch [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-11" name=qC2000-204-11>C2000-204-11 B</A>].  To the right is some small passage that connects to the Bonsai Crawl.  Half way along this passage there is a hole [<A

<P><B>Bonsai Crawl</B> is a wide bedding plane.  A tall and thin passage to the right goes to a chamber with a pitch [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-52" name=qC2000-204-52>C2000-204-52 C</A>] and a couple of small passages to the right [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-50" name=qC2000-204-50>C2000-204-50 C</A>] and [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-51" 
name=qC2000-204-51>C2000-204-51 C</A>].  A passage leads off to the left and gets lower, passing some pretties on the floor. It then continues [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-53" 
name=qC2000-204-53>C2000-204-53 A</A>].  Bonsai Crawl continues to a fork that has a stooping-size
passage to the left [<A href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-12" 
name=qC2000-204-12>C2000-204-12 B</A>].  To the right is a walking-size passage with a boulder floor.  There is a hole in the right wall that has a couple of small passages leading off [<A 
href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-13" name=qC2000-204-13>C2000-204-13 C</A>], [<A 
href="qm.shtml#C2000-204-14" name=qC2000-204-14>C2000-204-14 C</A>].  The passage then debauches into <B>The Colonnade</B>.
