About half way between Lunch Cave, and the Bat Cave, we found a large Cycad. We found a hole in the ground, no more than 5m from the Cycad, which dropped down into a 16m long slot, the floor of which was covered in a layer of bat guano. The slot continued under the entrance pitch, but stopped after a few metres. Both the northwestern and the southeastern ends of the slot end in boulder choke, and further progress appeared unlikely.
