  1. A less common (but still relatively normal) type of cave dwelling spider near Top Entrance, Tegenaria silvestris. This is a very close relative of the house spider, and while it is similarly patterned, it is much smaller, and does not like being in houses. It appears to be female. Modelling by Sylvia
  2. Chasm Passage, at the junction with the passage leading to The Crevasse. High up in the ceiling is where the Wall Of Death hole falls into the passage. Modelling by Steph, lighting by Tarquin and Steph
  3. Calcited alcove near Poached Egg.
  4. Looking back up Poached Egg, where instead of climbing directly down, the route is to traverse along the wall towards the camera. Modelling by Steph, lighting by Tarquin and Steph
