<P>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
2002-05-26 19:08:03 +01:00
Augst-Eck</SPAN>. It is currently one of the main areas of exploration for CUCC, who in 2001
2002-05-26 19:14:19 +01:00
established a <a href="bivvy.shtml">bivvy site</a> under the
<a href="bridge.shtml">stone bridge</a> opposite the entrance.

<P><B>Access route:</B>The route from Top Camp used since 1999 (probably near optimal) is a
cairned path via <SPAN lang=de>Wolfh<66>hle</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>
2003-01-19 12:40:28 +00:00
The path used in 2001 then skirts around the contours, passing
the unmistakable arched entrance of
<a href="../2000-09/2000-09.htm">Hauchh&ouml;hle</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
2002-05-26 19:08:03 +01:00
higher up towards the Hinter was used, which some people still prefer; this
is also cairned).
2002-08-08 20:09:08 +01:00
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.
