Star Light Passage
Star Light passage is a fine, roomy walking passage that heads southeast from Starfish Junction. After 15m, a passage on the right connects back to Maximum Pleasure, and immediately after this a further large passage underneath also connects to Maximum Pleasure (accessed by a 3m climb down). The main passage continues in similar fashion for a further 100m to an aven on the left [QM 2007-258-101 X]. Beyond the aven is a small passage heading steeply uphill with snow and leaves at the bottom [QM 2007-258-65 A]. This area is very close to Ants in Pants Schacht, but repeated attempts have failed to find a connection. Immediately before the aven is an unexplored tube heading downhill on the right [QM 2007-258-64 B].
Continuing past the aven leads immediately to a junction with Delicious on the left - the route to Gravity Always Wins - whilst Star Light Passage turns east. A further passage to the left rapidly chokes. The continuing passage ahead passes the head of an 11m pitch into Iceflow. Immediately beyond this, a crawling sized phreatic tube on the right is the Gravity Always Wins bypass that provides access to Delicious passage south of Gravity Always Wins.
At this point, Star Light Passage turns left (north) and heads uphill developing a floor trench. The passage continues up this ramp for a further 120m, gradually getting smaller, to the limit of exploration: a 2m climb up [QM 2007-258-59 C] at the base of a drippy aven [QM 258-0762-1 X]. 20m before the limit of exploration, is a small unexplored tube heading up [QM 258-0762-2 C].
