Include any relevant details of how to find or push the QM in ; the textual description. ;Serial number grade(A/B/C/X) nearest-station resolution-station description ;QM1 B lobsterpot.10 - Possible phreatic ramp paralleling entry route at pitch head ;QM2 C lobsterpot.10 - Possible phreatic ramp on opposite side of pitch below rebelay. Very long bolt traverse required for access ;QM3 X lobsterpot.01 - 20+m high aven above stream inlet at base of pitch ;------------ ;Cave description ; 50m pitch lands in a large chamber with wet, welly-grabbing mud on the floor. A small stream enters ; from an aven in the west [QM-3 X] and flows into a sump exiting to the northwest. There ; are two other possible phreatic ramps near the top of the pitch [QM-1 B] [QM-2 C], but in both ; cases it would be difficult to gain access. *end lobsterpot
