Sur les traces de Xu Xiake

Entrance had strong draught on first visit; less so on a second visit. A short climb down (5m handline useful) leads to a large chamber a few metres from the entrance. The way on is up an entertaining 5m free climb to a 10m pitch down, rigged from a thread, into a second chamber which has a low crawl through to a third. From here several possible ways on were pushed to no avail. A dig under a very large boulder on the far wall became dangerously unstable; to the right of the dig a climb led to a solution pocket and too-narrow tube; to the left an 8m bolt climb led to phreas which all became too tight; and further left two upward sloping digs became too unstable to pursue.
