<h2><center>CUCC Austria 2002 - Mission statement</center></h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This summer, Cambridge University Caving Club will be continuing our highly successful series of expeditions to the
|
||||
Loser plateau in Austria. Here we set out the principal goals for this year.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Background</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This summer represents CUCC's 27th expedition to the Loser plateau, which lies in the Totes Gebirge mountains, about
|
||||
80km east of Salzburg. We are the principal group exploring in the area, which continues to yield new discoveries.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The principal known systems in the area are the southern Schwarzmooskogel system, comprising <a
|
||||
href="../../smkridge/41/41.htm">Stellerweghöhle</a> itself, the stunningly beautiful <a
|
||||
href="../../noinfo/smkridge/40.htm">Schwarzmooskogel Eishöhle</a>, and a number of other smaller caves, much of
|
||||
which was explored by CUCC in the 70s and early 80s; and <a href="../../smkridge/161/top.htm">Kaninchenhöhle</a>,
|
||||
an extremely complex system discovered by CUCC in 1989 which was the main focus of our expeditions between then and
|
||||
2000.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>For a long period these caves were known to approach each other very closely but a connection between them proved
|
||||
elusive. This was finally achieved by a German group last year, bringing the total length of the
|
||||
Schwarzmooskogelhöhlensystem to over 50km and its depth to 1030m, placing it in among both the world's deepest
|
||||
and longest caves.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p> Over the last three years the principal focus of our expeditions has been <a
|
||||
href="../../smkridge/204/204.shtml">Steinbrückenhöhle,</a> a cave lying to the north of the furthest known
|
||||
reaches of Kaninchenhöhle. This has quickly yielded over 4.7km of passage reaching a depth of 368m. As well as its
|
||||
considerable potential in its own right, it has a number of promising leads pointing in the direction of
|
||||
Kaninchenhöhle, in particular the Razordance streamway which is currently the deepest known point in the cave and
|
||||
is no more than 300m away from the Fuzzy Logic series in Kaninchenhöhle. This area of Kaninchenhöhle has a
|
||||
number of large unexplored leads which we shall be returning to now that the possibility of a connection to
|
||||
Steinbrühöhle seems possible.
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Principal Goals for 2003</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Steinbrückenhöhle</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul> <li>Continue the exploration of Razordance and other leads heading southwards</li> <li>Push the pitches leading
|
||||
off Swings and Roundabouts (Merry-Go-Round and Gaffered to the Wall series). (<i> This was one of the aims of last
|
||||
year's expedition, but due to poor weather conditions, this was not finished.</i>)</li> <li>Explore leads in the
|
||||
north-east end discovered in 2001 (Chocolate Salty Balls area)</li> </ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Kaninchenhöhle</h3>
|
||||
<li>Revisit deep pitches in Far North area</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Elsewhere</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul> <li>Re-explore Hauchhöhle, which lies above the hypothetical Steinbrückenhöhle -
|
||||
Kaninchenhöhle connection</li>
|
||||
<li>Explore any other undescended caves in this area</li>
|
||||
<li>Explore the many
|
||||
large unexplored entrances reported on the far side of the ridge behind the Steinbrücken bivvy site, which are
|
||||
believed to be at the same stratigraphic level as the principal horizontal development in
|
||||
Steinbrückenhöhle</li> </ul>
