tightyorkshireman
person size phreatic tube, left passage emerges at pitch head, right passage becomes too tight.
rabbitwarrens
Sandy crabwalk turning into a tube parallel to main passage connecting to ein und zwanzig
noserock2
Pitch dropped round the corner from the pitch in noserock. Lots of
break-down and pitch ended in a choked chamber floor.
northhole
;Small grotty hole in the floor of eis koek aven, which connects through to the nearby large hole down to a circular ice floor.
northhole2
; continuing north from northhole, there is a series of freeclimbable avens going upward, the final survey station is at an awkward but not impassable squeeze. A handline would be very helpful in coming back down. There are also two connections to the frozen north, one is a tube at head height and the other is a small crawl at the start of the choss slope leading to the first aven climb.
icecockLC1
;linking icecock aven to the ice pit in north hole.
icecock3
;small sandy floored tube connecting the icecock bypass to the northhole passage
gosserwager2
linking the bottom of the pitch (name?) to the rift above gosser wager and the pitch down to it, continuing to a boulder choke.
gosserwager3
Rift passage heading South, with a 15m pitch at head. Clean walls, rubble floor. Leads to short down climb before more rift and another pitch series.
frozennorth
climb up between wall and block, aided by two bolts, to enter ice lake
chamber. Ahead is a large aven with snow slope entering. Just before
this is a small passage on the right. Climb up into this and follow
ice inlet until breaks out into large aven and trench area at station
12. To the south is/was unexplored, but later connected to rest of
cave. To left is small sanding tube to view into same trench system.
frozennorth4
left juction in frozennorth where there are sandy crawls, comes out on
a precarious ledge above a big hole. Traversing around this leads to a
medium sized sandy crawl sloping downwards to a huge chamber with a
pitch suspected to be the north end of lead 93B from the start of
expo2015 in turtlehead.
frozennorth3:
A rift passage that loops round and links 2 chambers, with possible leads at the end at station 5.
darkartsiv:
continuing A lead at south end of dark arts, went in then surveyed out but didn't make it all the way to connect up the surveys.
cathedralLC2:
Linking avalancheexperience to cathedralchasm without having to use the dodgy data in chamber90b survey
cathedralchasm:
really fucking huge chamber with many good leads. turns out it was already surveyed as chamber90b be Julian.
catherdralchasm2
Coming fdrom Cathedral Kazam a wet traverse across a pitch David
dropped a setter down. Passage continues to chamber with a loop coming
off to the left up and emerging at top of chamber en route. from
cahmber a rift goes off up right with main passgae continueing
straight. Also a small lead to left leads round to two small 5m pitchs
containg crystal formations. A traverse continues on with another
pitch. Taking the main route from the chamber a sandy passage leads
past three bat skeletons before becoming a crawl, eventually reaching
a junction. the larger passge to the left links back to the passge
near trident junction/ gear dump. This bypass is now the recommended
wat to reach cathedral kazam.
bipedal:
heading south out of amalgamation you arrive at a large long hole in the floor. Partial completion of traverse over hole, plus exploratin of two small side leads. Left over small rock bridge ends in blind pot. Right hand small passage soon becomes too tight.
bipedalpassage5
short pitch down to large aven chamber with vedose rift in floorway.
hiltigalactica
After dropping initial pitch (Deep Space 9) approx 25m in hilt-a-plenty.
Long rocky chamber from bottom of pitch to next unexplored pitch.
Slope near end up left ends after short distance. Small side passage near
start on right continues to small sandy chamber with several leads.
From here archway leads onto bouldery ledge in side of very large chamber
to be explored.
