<p>
Wook & Serena filled the van with lots of food & gear & set off for
expo. Remarkably traffic-free trip in the UK & across europe. Relised
at dover that we'd failed to bring a map of europe in physical or
digital form, so did a quick download + make plan on cheap UK data.
Worked very well offline so failed to get lost at all. Had 4hrs kip
en-route.
</p><p>
Very hot all the way here until thunderstorms from Reid in Imkreis
onwards. _Very_ wet. Got to Bad Aussee having heard that there was a
big concert on but traffic had cleared. Main Rd to Grundlesee was
closed & we were sent the back way, only to find it was totally packed
with drenched pedestrians & vehicles coming the other way. Eventually
got to the main rd to find totally stationary traffic. Went nowhere
for about half an hour before finally inching down to camp site which
was utterly heaving.

Left 5:30pm, arrived 9:30pm.

Rigged the entrance pitch to 204. Found that the snow was quite low.
My spanner made a descent of the 2nd pitch, at which point I went out

Popped down the hole to top of Fat Cat. Jess pointed me towards Emmas
alternative hole, using backup of Fat Cat started on a quick pootle
downhill. Realised quite quckly I'd been sandbagged into a hard
bolting nightmare. No slings so cut end off rope to make one and head
down in tight rift.
</p><p>
Ended in rift that opened, placed bolt and headed down. Some minor
rubs that probably didn't damage the rope... Found a nice loking
natural and destroyed it one hit. Didn't make the mistake a second
time and cut end off rope to make a sling, arrived at sharp eyehole
looking for deviation - Jess called down from Emmas 'actual' hole
'which was nice'. Lost confidence in rock after dinner-plate fell off.
taking note of natural above. made 'Y' hang but [unreadable] with hand
bolts. Wish I had not lost drill bit at bivvy.
</p><p>PS pitch heads back under and appears to connect to Fat Cat pitch.
