After the thrill os the other passage tombs here this is a disappointment. There is no passage or chamber visible, I don't know if it is unopened or simply collapsed beyond recognition.

The weather started getting REALLY bad around here and so I decided to head back down to lower ground and out of the fog.

Well, with the benefit of some visibilty beyond 10 feet I can confirm that there is absolutely nothing to see here.
