<p>NB. This name is the 1983 provisional name, which was intended to be

scrapped. <b>Weiße Warze Höhle II</b> might be better, but this
|
2001-08-15 19:29:27 +01:00
|
|
|
cave really should have a proper name - after all, it was 284m deep before

|
the connection to the main system! It appears in Austrian lists just as
|
|
|
|
|
Schwarzmooskogelschacht. ARGE call it "Tony's Second Höhle", so we're
|
|
|
|
|
probably stuck with the name now.

<p>This is the highest entrance to Stellerweghöhle found by CUCC, and a

|
|
|
<p>A predominantly vertical entrance series leads to a level of extensive
|
|
|
|
|
fossil phreatic development, <b>not fully explored</b>. The main passage,
|
|
|
|
|
<b>The Yellow Brick Road</b>, leads to the lip of a 25m pitch into a large
|
|
|
|
|
muddy chamber. From the bottom, a steeply dipping tube is followed down
|
|
|
|
|
until a canyon is reached from a boulder chamber. Most ways close down
|
|
|
|
|
quickly from here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Across the pitch from Yellow Brick Road is a large continuing passage,
|
|
|
|
|
gained by an obscure and somewhat exposed route in boulders. It soon leads
|
|
|
|
|
to a bolted climb, but a ramp down below drops to another large passage.
|
|
|
|
|
Right here, the draught is followed through winding passage until it emerges
|
|
|
|
|
20m up in a chamber. Backtracking leads to a squeeze and muddy crawls to the
|
|
|
|
|
bottom, from where a canyon develops, finally dropping into
|
|
|
|
|
<a href="41/41.htm">Stellerweghöhle</a> below the Big Pitch via a 10m
|
|
|
|
|
chimney.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>There are a significant number of unpushed leads in the cave, but all are
|
|
|
|
|
expected to connect back to already known passage.
|
|
|
|
