The entire floor of this cave consists of small rocks and boulders. There is no solid rock anywhere horizontal, except halfway down the pitch.
After climbing out of the hole there is another 5m deep choked hole beyond. Traverses round to both the left and right are possible, although a little care is required due to the low roof and loose floor.
To the right, rubble coming out of the bottom of a choked shaft almost blocks the passage but a crawl through to the left remains, with a strong wind blasting through the confined space. Beyond this constriction the draught is lost. The roof remains low on the other side, although it is possible to stand up off to the left where there is a 4m climb up to what looks like a way on but is actually blind. Moving around the boulder pile to the right leads to a big passage. There are a few large boulders 10m to the right with a 4m climb down between them leading to a tight choked rift. This was also dug into from the top passage by the extremely zealous original explorers! There is an alcove in front and a rubble slope up to the right. Round the corner to the right is another shaft-bottom rubble pile and a hole disappearing into the roof. At the top of the slope to the left is a 4m climb up through and around big wedged boulders to reach an impressive chamber 7m × 9m and 12m high. There is a possible climb up into an aven in the corner which probably doesn't go and has a couple of moves at the top which need protecting.
Back at the fork near the entrance, turning left and thrutching over a couple of rocks (another windy spot) leads to the head of a 17m pitch broken by a ledge 8m down. There is a bolt for a ladder hang on this ledge. Going off to the left allows a safe traverse past the pitch continuation to the bottom of a 6m high rift with some ice in it, slowly narrowing as it goes up.
At the foot of the pitch is what looks like an ancient phreatic remnant. It is about 40m long and 6m wide, and mostly full of rocks. To the left it is blocked at the end by the rubble coming out of the bottom of a big shaft. It is possible to work round the foot of this for about 3m to the left and 10m to the right.
Going the other way down the passage reveals a large snow column by the left hand wall. It is possible to climb up between the column and its containing shaft, presumably all the way to the surface, but no-one has managed it yet. Beyond this column the roof gets lower, apart from a couple of solutional avens and eventually a small shaft-bottom rock pile and a couple of small inlet tubes mark the end of the cave.
There is no extant description or survey of what Brian and Becka discovered in 1999 except that it was a shaft to around 50m of passage. This and the position of their entrance suggests that they had dropped into the lower part of 162, near the snow column from the original description.",,,,,"In dataset","1990 plan Cambridge Underground 1991

There was only the remains of a snow plug in 1988, although the plug is almost complete in some years (eg. 1995 - it was gone again in 1996).
A small stream enters and lands on boulders at the foot of the pitch in a passage leading south along a fault. A climb of 4m over precarious boulders reaches a bolt for the second pitch. The quality of rock in this area leaves a lot to be desired. The second pitch, 12m and third pitch, 15m are separated only by a small ledge. Water sinks in floor of small passage floored with what would appear to be the previous season's roof, now decayed into small jagged rocks. Continuing passage over boulders rises to 4-5m dropping steeply for 30m on the same south-trending fault. The water is rejoined at a freehanging 10m pitch from a rock bridge overlooking a sizeable chamber.
The stream sinks at the foot of the pitch in the centre of the 15m by 7m chamber floor. To the east, a scramble leads up to a shattered cross-rift from a large shelf about 15m long and 10m wide, but ends too tight. A similar feature to the west up a 4m climb becomes a low bedding with no way on. Due south are two passages, the one to the right leading 20m round a couple of bends to a sandy choke. The left passage quickly chokes. The draught seems to be lost into the continuation of the passage above the final pitch, on the far side of the chamber. This would be best reached by a traverse on steep loose rock from the 4m climb in the chamber. The pitches take large quantities of water very quickly in rain.",,,,,,"Elevation in Cambridge Underground 1989",,,"60ish metres",,,,"p164tag","p164rig",,,"Surface survey","gps96.164/189 gps96bestfit.164",,,,,,,"On plateau, beyond B11 (1623/198).

Sky can be seen through a third entrance in the ceiling, which is surrounded by undergrowth on the surface. A hole down the back edge of the snow plug leads to a slither down a partially iced steep (30°) boulder slope, with a low ceiling which soon rises. A large boulder several metres across is jammed across the slope at a few metres further down, below which the boulder slope continues. An inlet to the left just before an ice formation soon becomes too tight. Carrying on, the slope soon gives way to a traverse above a vadose canyon, with a laddered climb (6m) after about 25m. It is possible to continue along the top of the rift all the way to above the top of shell pitch. It is much more spacious than below but has a couple of bad steps.
From the bottom of the ladder, the passage soon drops down a climb of 2m. Then there is a winding, rifty passageway, named ""Magic Mushroom Passage"" due to the peculiar mushroom-like formations on the walls. These, together with the white dusty look of the walls in places, give the cave its name. After 100m the rift widens, and a traverse develops above a narrower rift below. The upper level may be followed to above the first rope pitch, but the more usual route is to climb down a rock pile into the lower rift (40cm wide), which is known as the Yorkshire Ripper, due to the effect of the sharp, narrow rift on oversuits, and the Yorkshire feel of the cave at this point. After 15m, relieved at one point by a small alcove with an irritating spray of water, the narrow rift widens, after a final flourish, to the head of the first rope pitch (6m).
Shell Pitch
Carrying on from the base of the pitch, the tiny rift in the floor deepens, and traversing along leads soon to the head of Shell pitch (19m). Descending gives a fine view of the chamber, the walls of which contain many large bivalve fossils (hence the pitch's name). From this chamber, a short traverse leads to a junction. Left is an unclimbable aven, whilst to the right is Piezo de Resistance, described below. The main route is currently down Q8 pitch which is broken by a ledge after 16m. After a further 9m and a rebelay, a pendulum through a window to one side leads on. Descending further, the shaft stops after 19m and a further rebelay. There are no passable ways on from the bottom (Strike One).
After the pendulum, a vast army of rebelays lies in wait (Dot to Dot), eventually ending in a larger pitch (25m) the bottom of which, again, has no ways on (Strike Two).
Yet again, a pendulum (at -14m) yields more cave (Bottom Bypass). A dubious 11m hang leads to a ledge. At one end of the ledge, ducking under an arch enters a chamber at the bottom of a high shaft (Lady's Loo), down which a vast torrent pours in wet weather. A further 9m down from the ledge is a floor. Progress can be made along the top of a slimy keyhole shaped rift (Tarzan's Folly) which is irritating to pass, especially with tackle. After 20m, a false floor appears and a few metres further on is The Dark Room, a high chamber with dark, textured walls. A waterfall cascades down from unfathomable heights, and pounds onto a ledge to the back right of the cavern.
Climbing down a slimy slope (which in an ideal world would be lined) the way on is along a rift which exits from the rear of the chamber on the left side. The rift has a couple of false floors in it. The middle level leads to the head of the next pitch: Natural Redundancy (11m) is reached after about 10m. The rope is belayed to a large chock stone at head level, then to a bolt about two inches from a beautifully rounded thread, hence the name. Cyclotron pitch follows immediately, then comes Quark, Strangeness and Charm, a rift passage with many possible traverse levels. In places there are flowstone bosses, and near the roof, some odd tippex stals can be seen. The formations are only notable due to their rarity in the caves of this region.
Cloud Chamber Quark Strangeness & Charm At the end of QS&C, the passage sweeps round to the left as the floor drops away into Cloud Chamber. The pitch is broken by two rebelays. The grade 5 survey stops about 20m back from the pitch head. The details of the passage leading to the next pitch are uncertain, although the consensus is that it is around 20-30m long, and fairly straight. The lack of information led to the name Amnesia Alleyway. The next pitch is NDE, an acronym for ""Near Death Experience"" , since a party of cavers was flood-pulsed just below this pitch during the initial exploration. This incident also named The Delicate Sound of Thunder, another rift passage with a traverse along to a pitch (Traditional Style - laddered in 1991, marking the end of exploration that year).
After the first 5m slope to a rebelay, Traditional Style drops 12m (with one deviation) to a wide shelf. At the right hand edge is another 12m pitch. This lands in a muddy area which quickly becomes a very muddy steeply descending rift. An 8m pitch (2 bolts, Y-hang) a bit of clambering and a 5m pitch (one bolt) get you to a washing-up-bowl-sized sump at -292m.
5m up on the left hand wall (by the last bit of string) is a muddy crawl. This is below the 'tide-mark' of the sump so is somewhat oppressive. It leads, after 8m to a high parallel rift. A couple of 2m climbs ahead lead back down to another, slightly larger, sump. The rift rises at least 20m, apparently without connecting back to the main descent route.
Piezo de Resistance
From the head of ""Q8"" pitch, an alternative route may be followed along a rift on a fault at 20-200°, hading 80° to the west. Taking the passage to the right, a traverse develops after 10m. Water sinks into a hole in the floor after a further 10m, and beyond this, is a 9m pitch, followed after 10m or so by a longer pitch of 16mm.
Crow's Nest The Chimney This lands on a ledge with an obvious continuation below, but the route, to keep away from potential water, takes a much more interesting route. It goes up a 6m pitch to the Crow's Nest, a narrow rock rib separating two parts of the shaft. This was originally reached by a bolt traverse round the right hand wall. From the Crow's Nest, The Chimney drops 30m in typical Puffball triangular pitch (elliptical joint-aligned phreas cut down on lower side by vadose action). The rope stays resolutely on the upper side with a series of epic hanging rebelays.
At the bottom a 34m freehang lands in the Darkroom, but the bottom of this is in the waterfall (noted in the Darkroom description), so the route goes through a window near the top of the hang which gives a nice dry 30m hang.

However Adam Cooper's rucksack (containing the rope), placed unwisely near the edge, made the first descent. Adam followed on a ladder to retrieve it, then placed a bolt for a further descent on rope. The shaft continued beside a snow plug, but was deemed unsuitable for further exploration in shorts. The find was not relocated in 1993, so exploration stopped. Found again in 1995 whilst marking other known entrances, and probably seen again in 1996.
After a first descent placing a bolt again showed it unsuitable for exploration in shorts, a determined effort by Wookey in 1998 pushed the second pitch, between hanging death ice and snow to a definite choke. However, partway down this pitch was a window with a draught, leading to a third pitch (one bolt at takeoff, another just below). This was nn metres to a final choke.
The whole cave is formed on a fault which forms a SE-facing scarp on the surface. A short distance NE of the entrance, the fault line cuts a lower-lying area.

However Adam Cooper's rucksack (containing the rope), placed unwisely near the edge, made the first descent. Adam followed on a ladder to retrieve it, then placed a bolt for a further descent on rope. The shaft continued beside a snow plug, but was deemed unsuitable for further exploration in shorts. The find was not relocated in 1993, so exploration stopped. Found again in 1995 whilst marking other known entrances, and probably seen again in 1996.
After a first descent placing a bolt again showed it unsuitable for exploration in shorts, a determined effort by Wookey in 1998 pushed the second pitch, between hanging death ice and snow to a definite choke. However, partway down this pitch was a window with a draught, leading to a third pitch (one bolt at takeoff, another just below). This was nn metres to a final choke.
The whole cave is formed on a fault which forms a SE-facing scarp on the surface. A short distance NE of the entrance, the fault line cuts a lower-lying area. The draught, which was mostly outward through the head of the third pitch during the final exploratory trip, periodically reverses for 10-15 seconds.

+1623: Main plateau area + + + + +The Loser Augst-Eck plateau
+ +The area CUCC calls The Plateau is situated north of the +Bräuning wall. To the west it drops off into Grüne Bichl, a large +valley (relatively unvisited) which marks one boundary with the adjacent 1626 kataster area. To the north it continues +further than most are prepared to walk over the rough limestone. Work done +beyond CUCC's normal limit is considered under "Further" plateau and out to +Augst-Eck. North of this is also area 1626. To the east, the plateau starts +to rise towards the long Schwarzmooskogel ridge, and we take the break of slope +as a rather arbitrary boundary with the western slopes of the next area, the Schwarzmooskogel ridge.
+ ++ +
Access
+ +The route to the plateau takes between 25 and +45 minutes, depending on weather, load and fitness. This is to reach the start +of the karren at the Schwarzmoosattel; it can take +another hour or more to reach a particular cave.
+ +Description
+ +From the Schwarzmoossattel at 1684m, the plateau stretches out to the north, +looking relatively level. On the map it appears gently undulating, rising from +steeper slopes above Grüne Bichl to the west, levelling off about 1600m, +and reaching 1700m in the east where slopes rise to the Schwarzmooskogel ridge. +Far to the north, the bare limestone peaks of Schönberg, Große and +Kleine Wild Kogel and Grieß Kogel rise to over 2000m.
+ + + +Once down onto the plateau, the reality is a little different, as +small-scale relief is made up of pavements and cliffs of up to 10m. One bit +looks very much like another and an intermittent covering of impenetrable +thickets of dwarf pine (known as Pinus mugo to botanists, Lärchen +to the Austrians, and, for historical reasons, 'Bunde' within CUCC) also help +to make progress and navigation very difficult. Sharp rocks and open shafts +lie everywhere, awaiting the unwary.
+ +++ +
+Small scars and dwarf pine dominate the foreground of this +view to the Bräuning wall from the plateau below Top Camp.
+ ++View over eastern edge of plateau to entrance 1623/82 and Hinterer +Schwarzmooskogel beyond.
Potential new caves are frequent, although the plateau is characterised by +snow- and scree-choked open shafts. Prospecting is time-consuming, and it's worth +looking very carefully for a painted number or other signs of previous +exploration (eg. bolts) before entering.
+ +As Top Camp is on the southern edge of +this area, and routes to several major finds cross it, there has been a +significant number of recorded finds, since the earliest years of CUCC's +work.

1623: Schwarzmooskogel ridge + + + +Schwarzmooskogel ridge
+ +Exploration in the last few years has shown that though a variety of +different approach walks are needed to visit various parts of the +long ridge on the SE side of area 1623, many of the significant caves +form part of a single, very extensive, system.
+ +In the southern part, the Vorderer +Schwarzmooskogel (1843m), the area is bounded on the west by steep +scars into the Kratzer valley and to the south and southeast by the +cliffs of Weiße Wand, below which lies Altausseer See and +the Hoch Klapf valley to its NE.
+ +The ridge runs NNE, with a col at 1755m, before rising to the Hinterer Schwarzmooskogel at 1906m. To the west of this, +the area slopes down to the bare karren of the plateau. Steeper slopes to the east drop into +the Hoch Klapf valley which marks the boundary with +the adjacent kataster region 1624. There is no real boundary to the north or +northeast - just a limit to how far we have yet looked. Currently this is +some distance further NE beyond the summit of the Nieder +Augst-Eck. Beyond this, there are no known caves for some way, by which +time they fall into the remote plateau or Wildensee areas, as +listed here.
+ +The area is more densely covered with dwarf mountain pine than the plateau +or other minor areas we have looked at, with a few "real" trees dotted about +too. This tends to restrict prospecting +to narrow corridors of access on established routes (these can hardly be +described as paths).

This is marked with a scattering of cairns, which +are augmented at the beginning of each expedition with reflective markers +(collected in again at the end of the expo).

-1623: Schwarzmooskogeleishöhle approach - - - - -Eishöhle area - walk-in
- -Starting from the Nipple (see walk-in -description in open part of site), a less obvious marked path continues. - -
A very large cave entrance, 20 minutes further on, is an old bivouac used -by the Munich cavers, and a few minutes later, a strongly draughting (out in -summer) tube about 5m in diameter is the main entrance to the -Eishöhle. This was also the site of an old French -bivouac, but must have been very cold. Continuing past a large snow-choked -entrance and a couple of small holes, all in a cliff to the left, the path -ends abruptly and unambiguously at the "new" entrance, also strongly -draughting. This is between one and a half and two hours from the car park. - -

The area of most concern to the Expo Treasurer will almost certainly be the travel expenses, for journeys to and from Austria. Transport is notionally coordinated by the Expo Treasurer (see later) with the objective of getting all the people to Expo at minimum overall cost (consistent with reasonable comfort, safety, timeliness, etc. :-). Typically, some people are helpful and drive to Expo with cars full of passengers and/or Expo gear. The ferry, fuel and toll costs for these vehicles are normally refunded in full. Some vehicles travel to and/or from Expo with half or less of a full complement of passengers; in these cases the costs may or may not be refunded, or refunded in part, at the discretion of the treasurer. The decision is normally based on whether the car was under-utilised because the driver was too inflexible/uncommunicative to fit in better with the Expo transport plan, whether the inefficiency was unavoidable. Where a vehicle goes off elsewhere before or after Expo, Expo usually pays for the 'useful' part of the journey.
-Photographic costs have been discussed recently, with the outcome that Expo pays only for its own copy of slides/prints. It does not pay for film or development unless it gets to keep the negatives. We recommend that photographers keep their own originals as this makes it less likely that the originals will be lost and easier for the photographer to do whatever they like with their images (publish, competitions, copies for friends, etc.). Photographers retain copyright of their material, but should give Expo the 'right to reproduce' their photographs for CUCC journals, slideshows, etc if they wish Expo to pay for any of it. See David Gibson's thoughts on this in appendix F.

Expo does not pay fines (speeding, parking or otherwise) but may pay road tolls.
