Climbing down behind a large rock in Littoral North gives access to nice walking passage floored with dark dirt, trending NNW. A strong breeze blows in. The passage proceeds, past three small horizontal tubes on the left [QM 07-25 C] [QM 07-18 C] [QM 07-24 C] for 40m where the passage passes over a cross-joint forming a pitch that can be seen through a very small hole in the floor[QM 07-26B]. Would need capping to get in. Immediately beyond a C2 gets into almost perfectly straight passage with some popcorn on the walls, and another unexplored crawl on the right [QM 07-19 C]. At the end is a wider T-junction. Down to the left is a stoop into a boulder-floored chamber containing a too-tight crawl on the left and two small avens [2007-258-21-X] (at 1st corner), [2007-258-20-X] (at end). To the right, 5m further on, is an important T-junction. Right is Maximum Pleasure leading to the northern areas of the cave. Left is Dubious Pleasure, which takes the draught, and leads to the lower levels of the cave via String Theory.

Maximum Pleasure: south of Starfish Junction

A fine walking passage heads steadily up-dip with a strong outward draft. Goes 180m to Starfish junction, via a few boulders to clamber over. A tight rift on the right is passed after 75m [QM 07-23 C]. After 130m a shelf forms on LH wall after floor canyon disappears under LH wall, where there is an unexplored sandy crawl [QM 07-27 B]. The shelf is the main way on and rises slowly above floor level until you are traversing past a large hole on the R. This connects under RH wall to Star Light passage. Crawls on LH side at shelf level 30m south of Starfish Junction have [QM 07-22-C] parallel to main passage and [QM 07-28-B] in back corner behind pillars. A climb up on the left in a cross-rift 10m south of Starfish Junction leads immediately to a boulder choke with a voice and light connection to a side passage in Just for a Laugh. [2007-258-94-X] is a high (20m+) aven at the same point.

Starfish Junction has 4 large passages meeting at a large boulder and is a distinctive spot. Ahead (North) Maximum Pleasure continues. The right fork is Flying High. The 4th passage is Star Light passage. Including the higher and lower-level connections this is a complex junction.
