<p><b>Access route:</b> The arch-shaped entrance and gully are obvious from
the route used in 2000 onwards from Top Camp to <a href="../204/204.shtml">Steinbr&uuml;ckenh&ouml;hle</a>. Shortly after
crossing the large bare area of limestone slabs on the flanks of the Hinter, the path traverses directly around
the right-hand side of the entrance gully.
<P><B>Marking:</B> Tag.
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>The horizontal entrance slopes downhill for about 20m, passing beneath a skylight and a crawl to the left. The crawl
leads to a small chamber, where there are two ways on. Left becomes two small; straight ahead has not been pushed but is
a crawl.
<p>Back in the entrance passage, at the bottom of the slope there is an unpushed crawl to the left and a
wriggle up over rubble into a chamber. From this chamber,
the obvious way on is a pitch of approximately 15m, but there is a possible crawl above this (doesn't look promising). At
the foot of the pitch, in large rift passage, a crawl on the left leads for about 15m before turning left and becoming too
tight. Straight ahead, a crawl reaches a junction with continuations upwards, to the left, straight ahead, and to the
right, none of which have been pushed. To the right is a further unpushed crawl.
<p>Back in the rift chamber, an exposed, but easy-looking ascending traverse has not been pushed. There is a short climb
down, after which a climb up is blind, and the continuing descent passes a narrow point before entering an ascending
traverse in a rift which leads to a 5m pitch into a small chamber.
<p>A noticable draught was blowing out of the entrance in 2002, accompanied by water vapour.
