<p><b>Altitude:</b> 1880m, Depth 117m<br>
<b>Location:</b> 13&deg; 50' 04" E, 47&deg; 42' 04" N<br>
A large depression on the Hohes Augst-Eck ridge about 1km SSW of
Ro&szlig; Kogel, is reached from the crest of the ridge above the obvious
rock arch, by following a large snow field to the head of the depression.
Contouring around to the south of the depression, following the bedding,
LA25 to 27 are close together.
<p>Above the large depression, LA25 is an open, but obscure hole on a bedding shelf.
<p>A tricky 4m climb down to a ledge and further 2m drop gain the floor of a
chamber. Down boulder slope in chamber leads to a further short climb on
overhanging loose rubble to a small chamber with draughting rift. A squeeze
through the rift opens directly onto the head of an awkward 8m pitch.
Beyond, the floor soon disappears and way on is 5m of traverse in a widening
rift to where stones fall free for 5 seconds, this was the 1987 terminus.
<p>A 6m drop reaches a point overlooking a 5m wide circular shaft. Bolts for
a Y-hang lead onto the 56m free-hanging <b>Heart of Gold</b> pitch, named
for its cross section. Another 10m drop on the other side of a boulder lands
on a large ledge covered in loose boulders, <b>The Italian Bistro</b>.
Awkward rigging on the right wall and two lower bolts allow <b>Deep
Thought</b> to be rigged just clear of the tottering boulders that give the
18m pitch its name.
<p>At the base is <b>The Restaurant at the End of the Cave</b>, a large
chamber sporting five waterfalls. From the foot of the pitch, the floor is
steeply inclined up to an arch, beyond which the chamber continues to rise
to a total length of about 50m. A debris slope up to a tube at the highest
points leads only to a choke. There is no other way on from the Restaurant
since the floor is choke by major collapse at a depth of 117m.
