Allegedly this number was changed to 87A or 87B, but in fact this is not the
2018-08-02 16:06:49 +01:00
case and this number needs to be removed. [In 2018 the number has faded so badly that you can only just see that it once said "88".]< / td > < / tr >

2006-09-07 03:27:38 +01:00
an early significant find. However, the cave was written up in a
2001-08-15 19:29:27 +01:00
non-CUCC publication which went to the Austrians, who allocated this cave
2006-09-07 03:27:38 +01:00
their own number (76) since our number wasn't mentioned. This makes a lot of
CUCC documentation
confusing, but the net result is that 106 is probably not our number anymore. We
believe that the Austrians have not reused it, and in fact it appears they
still refer to Eislufthö hle as 106 in places.< / td > < / tr >

Year Gestation Hö hle< / a > (on the col en route to 161a) which is
2006-09-07 03:27:38 +01:00

numbered "185". One of these is really 186, whose marking was corrected
on < a href = "../years/1997/log.htm" > 1997-08-13< / a > .
The other is the undocumented 90/15 - the only reference
to this is in a 1990 log book write-up listing a number of caves which had
been painted during the expedition, so it seems most likely that 90/15 was a
typo and never actually existed, let alone got 185 painted on it.

< tr > < td > 232 - 238< / td > < td > < p > After the switch over to the new system whereby
caves are given official numbers only on receipt of a form and survey, the
numbers 232-5 were used for caves in the vicinity of Eishö hle, after
Robert Seebacher told us we'd be allocated these numbers so long as we got the
forms to him promptly. However, the forms were mistakenly posted to AERW
instead of the Austrians, so Robert not unreasonably allocated the numbers to
other caves.< / p >

< p > This led to some discrepancies between the Austrian's numbering and ours; these were resolved by an allocation of new numbers in 2004, detailed < a href = "../years/2004/kataster2004.html" > here< / a > . Some old documents and survey notes may be rather confusing on this point!< / p >
