              In the 'upper sleeping bay' of this shelter, most of the rock faces are crumbling and are covered with algae and lichens due to the recurrent flows of rain water.

              On a small area of the wall with a better surface there are a few figures: Three running human figures (two of them being hunters with large quivers) and an eland that appears to have two tails. Paint remains at the top might have been part of another human figure.
              P5 pager F79.

              Quivers are usually made of bark and are used to store arrows. The quiver, bow and other pieces of equipment were carried on a hunting bag, which is wider at one end than the other and which has a thong running its length so that it can be slung over a shoulder.

              This small panel, hidden by bushes, shows a jumping eland and a running man. Both are painted in white and are extremely faded. Details of these figures are only visible at certain hours of the afternoon when sunlight falls on the shelter floor. The posture of the man, which shows his legs in 'split action', is thought to depict the long pace when running at full speed.

              A variety of animals and human figures. The four cloaked figures are part of the 'great procession' illustrated elsewhere. In the top left hand corner, the eland bull painted with a white outline is unusual for this geographical area.

              There are three exceptionally tiny figures on the body of the shaded eland. The yellow and orange colours tend to mark the later painting styles.
