Description
A short free climb into a rift widens out on entering the cave. At the base of a short boulder slope an almost immediate reduction in oxygen to 16.4% mirrored by an increase in carbon dioxide to 4.6% caused concern but subsequent readings remained at or above this level. The cave is essentially a single well decorated easy walking passage. There is one short side passage and, at the end of the cave, a continuation along a sandy upslope ends quickly.
