107 QM list after Expo 2013

Entrance (107-EN)
C2012-107EN-1	X	ext.1	aven above boulder choke at end of rift. Probably not worth the effort as it is likely to connect with the rocks at the end of 2012-70 19m above.
C2012-107EN-2	C	ent.7	small passage to north of entrance passage possibly connects with 3 and 4
C2012-107EN-3	C	ent.8	small passage to north of entrance passage possibly connects with 2 and 4
C2012-107EN-4	C	ent.8	small passage to north of entrance passage possibly connects with 2 and 3
C2012-107EN-5	C	ent.17	small passages heading off from part way down entrance pitch, probably too shallow to be promising


Ropeless (107-RL)

C2012-107RL-1	C	ropeless.27	Northmost of two tubes high on west wall
C2012-107RL-2	C	ropeless.27	Southmost of two tubes high on west wall
C2012-107RL-3	C	ropeless.25	Lead to west (can't remember much about it)
C2012-107RL-4	C	ropeless.11	unpromising continuation across the old rift
C2012-107RL-5	C	ropeless.44	above and on S side of traverse level

Ropefree (107-RF)

C2013-107RF-1	X	ropefree.20	up aven on opposite side to window
C2013-107RF-2	C	ropefree.17	upper level - olly traversed over and climbed down near sleepless.4 - may well be no leads, but not thoroughly checked
C2013-107RF-3	X	ropefree.9	up aven
C2013-107RF-4	B	ropefree.14	pitch just beyond pushing the envelope

Sleepless (107-SL)

C2013-107SL-1	C	sleepless.7	narrowing continuation of rift
C2013-107SL-2	C	sleepless.3	"?" marked on sketch - unsure, hole in floor maybe?
C2013-107SL-3	X	0814.0	aven to north (needs gear)
C2013-107SL-4	X	0814.00	aven to west (needs gear or mad skillz)
C2013-107SL-5	B	cairnpitch.4	down short sharp pitch, then E - several leads down there
C2013-107SL-6	A	0728.000	continuation of rift drops away down stepped pitch (hard to get a depth estimate) - possible lead towards lower reaches of 76.

Coldest Place in Earth (107-CO)

C2013-107CO-1	A	0728.00	rift heading south after passage has turned East - seems to take some of the draft
C2013-107CO-2	X	0728.2	5m up wall just where passage stops wiggling
C2013-107CO-3	A	0728.1	down pitch below "easy traverse"
C2013-107CO-4	C	0728.6	continuation of right, down
C2013-107CO-5	C	0728.6  continuation of right, along and up
C2013-107CO-6	C	0728.4	small hole in floor - maybe looked at already?
C2013-107CO-7	C	0728.3	QM heading back and down ~ parallel to passage.

Restless (107-RS)

C2013-107RS-1	A	0801.18 (restless.18)	below the rift pitch, climb down below continuing traverse level and there's are two tubes off on the right near the bottom of the rift.  the right tube leads along a small drafting passage to an echoing undescended pitch of perhaps 20-25m pitch
C2013-107RS-2	B	0801.7 (restless.7)	on the 76 side of "too bold for this spit" traverse, a tube up to the left appears to continue in line with the passage on the far side of the traverse
C2013-107RS-3	B	0801.7 (restless.7)	the pitch below "too bold for this spit" traverse appears to drop into China (between china.1 and china.2) - the height difference is ~65m, so there's potential for a side passage in between, as well as a shortcut
C2013-107RS-4	C	0801.4 (restless.4)	continuation of passage where route turns left - passage drops away and looks uninspiring, though given proximity to KH may be worth investigating
C2013-107RS-5	C	0801.2 (restless.2)	possible way down to right, looks like it would require shifting some rocks, if not a full on dig
C2013-107RS-6	A	???? probably doesnt exist

Old Rift (107-OR)

C2013-107OR-1	C	oldrift.17	rift to right at bottom of short pitch from window opens out into old route, might be side passages though
C2013-107OR-2	C	oldrift.16	back under short drop below 16, likely connects to same place as 107-OR-1
C2013-107OR-3	C	oldrift.13	traverse along rift to left at top of pitch
C2013-107OR-4	C	oldrift.13	traverse along rift to right at top of pitch, likely just above stuff below, but might be leads off anyway

Land of Confusion (107-LC)

C2013-107LC-1	B	locoxbows.00	pitch heading ~NNE
C2013-107LC-2	C	locoxbows.0	clearly ends up in China but might be windows, etc on the way
C2013-107LC-3	C	locside.0	think stuart went there - might have been thoroughly checked but not 100% sure; sketch doesn't show it ending though
C2013-107LC-4	B	locside.4	undescended pitch
C2013-107LC-5	X	locside.4	aven above pitch, probably not an easy climb
C2013-107LC-6	C	landofconfusion.000	pitch at end of side passage, almost certainly ends up in China
C2013-107LC-7	C	landofconfusion.18 possible passage heading south  below start of pitch
C2013-107LC-8	X	landofconfusion.18	aven above pitch, probably not an easy climb
C2013-107LC-9	C	landofconfusion.18	small tubes to north of passage before pitch, one is probably too tight, other might be as well.
C2013-107LC-10	B	landofconfusion.22	continuation of passage across Korea, looks to be at the same altitude as land of confusion. Promising location, but would need a major bolt traverse to reach it.
C2013-107LC-11	C	landofconfusion.22	small tube at back of alcove below start of Korea
C2013-107LC-12	C	landofconfusion.1	pitch: clearly ends up in China but might be windows, etc on the way
C2013-107LC-13	C	landofconfusion.16	continuation?
C2013-107LC-14	C	landofconfusion.12	"hole qm C" in notes
C2013-107LC-15	C	landofconfusion.11	small side passage
C2013-107LC-16	A	landofconfusion.28	pitch heading SE from the lowest point on Down and Up. One of the few leads here heading for KH and not China.


China (107-CH)

C2013-107CH-1	B	china.9	climb/traverse Stuart attempted on north wall of china chamber, maybe gets into continuation; some rigging gear might be needed, shouldn't need lots of bolts; muddy rock though
C2013-107CH-2	C	china.18	can't remember much about it, but seems likely to at best be another way through the breakdown into china
C2013-107CH-3	C	china.27	"c-grade climb" say survey notes
C2013-107CH-4	B	china.26	looks like lower level continuation of LOC rift - thrutch up into slot but needs rocks moving to get to where it widens
C2013-107CH-5	A	china.00	pitch below korea chamber - wide open pitch, takes water
C2013-107CH-6	X	china.00	another feeder joins the pitch from far side
C2013-107CH-7	C	china.4	south of china.4, hole down into rocks by W wall; Stuart had inconclusive poke
C2013-107CH-8	C	china.2	possible way off to west
C2013-107CH-9	B	china.1	first pitch down between china.1 and china.0 (major draft south past china.1; water noise?)
C2013-107CH-10	B	china.1	second pitch down between china.1 and china.0 (major draft south past china.1; water noise?)
C2013-107CH-11	A	china.0	continuation of rift beyond china.0 (major draft south past china.1; water noise?)

Wonderland (107-WL)

C2013-107WL-1	A	wonderland2.20	short climb (probably needs 2 or 3 bolts) to gain large inlet passage - we tried near the end of the 2013 expo, but the drill managed half a hole; tried to lasso a spike - after many tries we got it but the spike moved.  Potential for connecting to 76.
C2013-107WL-2	B	wonderland2.00	climb up to left of passage gains smaller higher level passage with slight draft.  can't remember much else about it, notes say something like "soil lumps".  closest lead to 76.
C2013-107WL-3	A	wonderland2.0	sideways wriggle along awkward passage (continuation of floor trench leaving main passage) opens out to pitch on left.
C2013-107WL-4	C	wonderland.0	end of main Wonderland passage. Small and partly choked, but close to 76.
C2013-107WL-5	D	wonderland.2	RH fork at end of main Wonderland passage. Choked, requires digging. Close to 76.
