Dusty Junction[edit | edit source]
Dusty Junction is a major junction in Pippikin Pot, with routes leading to Link Pot and Mistral Hole. Several routes lead from the junction. In clockwise order:
- To the south, the main route leads towards Hall of the Ten, Pippikin Pot, and the other caves of Leck Fell.
- To the north-west, slightly left when coming from Hall of the Ten, is the route to the Hobbit and Mistral Hole exit, slightly downwards past stal bosses.
- To the north-east, slightly right when coming from Hall of the Ten, is the route to Squid Junction in Link Pot, slightly upwards past stal bosses.
- [To the right of the route to Squid Junction is a low crawl into a blind chamber.]
- To the south-east, a passage leads to Red Wall Chamber and White Wall Chamber.
Dusty Junction to Squid Junction[edit | edit source]
From Dusty Junction, the route to Squid Junction takes about 15 minutes, and is nearly all crawling. It starts by ascending over stal bosses to enter a crawl. The crawl soon reaches a section of canal. After a few minutes, the route descends to a low section. Ahead, an inlet is met entering from the left, and the way soon pops up into a cross rift with an aven to the left.
Ahead enters the Wet Wallow, a low wet crawl with about 15cm of airspace. The passage enlarges slightly, and follows a crawl through a long oxbow, and then a short oxbow. Beyond the oxbows, a trickle of water is followed upstream, and passes a passage to the right. Ahead, at a junction, an inlet enters from the right, and the way on is to the left. The crawl gradually enlarges to stooping, before arriving at Squid Junction.
- To the right leads to Hylton Hall and the Link Pot exit.
- To the left leads to Serendipity.
Squid Junction to Hylton Hall[edit | edit source]
From Squid Junction, walking passage gradually lowers to a crawl, and passes a side passage to the right. Beyond, the passage enlarges briefly, before arriving at Pybus Bypass, a slot down in the floor. This pops out into Hylton Hall.
