<p><b>Location:</b> The cave is situated on the west side of the col between the <span lang=de-at>Hinterer Schwarzmooskogel</span> and <span lang=de-at>Nieder Augst-Eck</span>. It is currently one of the main areas of exploration for CUCC, who in 2001 established a <a href="bivvy.shtml">bivvy site</a> under the <a href="bridge.shtml">stone bridge</a> opposite the entrance.</p>
<p><b>Approach:</b> The route from Top Camp used since 1999 (probably near optimal) is a cairned path via <span lang=de>Wolfhöhle</span> (<a href="../../plateau/145.htm">1623/145</a>) and Laser Point 5, then up to the top of the bare patch of white limestone visible from Top Camp, passing <a href="../195.htm">195</a> and <a href="../196.htm">196.</a> The path used in 2001 then skirts around the contours, passing the unmistakable arched entrance of <a href="../2000-09/2000-09.htm">Hauchhöhle</a>, to arrive <a href="sbview.shtml">directly opposite the stone bridge</a> after which the cave was named (in previous years a route slightly higher up towards the Hinter was used, which some people still prefer; this is also cairned). Alternatively, the cave may be approached from the summit of HSK - probably the optimal route if you are coming from any of the <a href="../161/top.htm">161</a> entrances.</p>
