 2nd of two trips into G in which we managed to get a decent (25min) route from the Bivy to entrance and rigged as far as the bottom of Knossos.

 Note: this is the place to take parentals to show them what it looks like underground.  Its cold, but the loop they take you round has a lot of steps to warm you up a bit.  Get a tourist card from the office and get it cheaper.  The cable car leaves from abover Obertrain - about 15 km cycle from Bad A. in forest.  There's a rough track that cuts corner from where another show cave has its booth.  We didn't go to Eishohle, instead caught the cable car up to top and walked around admiring the view at the 5-fingers and eating our sandwiches.  On the way back there was a cat playing with a snake. The snake wasn't having fun.

 Third trip into 161 to continue rigging. Passed Knossos and rigged Yapate traverse and staircase 36 (both red 9mm) also Strange Downfall (red 9mm) and Strange Upfall (white 11mm to the lip of the pitch and 9mm red thereup).  Edvin was foolish enough to trust the insitu rope on strange upfall and so we avoided a detour to Vom pitch :) Then rerigged pipeless entrance pitch/climb and 3m pitch/climb (black sling and white 11mm respectively). Got as far as the Bridge and returned to surface taking full tacklesacks of crap on way.

 After many days of fruitless hacking on troggle, then losing my mp3 player sometime in the process of canoeing across Toplitzsee, and returning to hoards of very beery Austrians moving in on Base Camp like leiderhausen-clad apes with camper vans, I was seriously pissed off enough to go caving.

-Went back with another rope to attempt to get to the bottom of the pitch we had run out of rope on last time. Kathryn and Jess S went in ahead, Jess added extra bolt on traverse whilst KAthryn finished rigging pitch. Edvin, Ian and I followed down about an hour later, when we arrived most of the rigging was doen which was good :) Pitch called Fat Cat. Was narrow at top then opened out below first rebelay. Next rebelay was even more airy :S, this dropped to one of the floors of a multi-level floored chamber. Across pitch looked like there was some horizontal level going off but would probably need more rigging to be able to swing into this and enthusiasm failed us. Put in another rebelay from natural and walked down a rope to another floor of chamber, yet another rebelay led to another level with small slot down - B lead, would need more rope, so not explored.

 Headed out - on way out rigged bottom section of Cat Flap and the handline pitch in Catwalk so leads could be explored if coming via Brian's Phat Shaft. Left up section of traverse rigged also. Derigged out to bottom of entrance series. Than you to non-zeusians Edvin and Ian for carrying out tacklesacks.
