<h1>Area 1623: Loser-AugstEck plateau</h1>
<p>Within the Austrian kataster, area 1620 is the Western Totes Gebirge. Area
1623 is the Loser - Augst-Eck plateau, bounded to the SE by path 234 from the
Wildenseehutte down to Altausseer See, to the south by the lake itself, then to
the SW by the road to Blaa-Alm. The Western edge is marked by the valley of
Gr&uuml;ne Bichl, and the northern limit is the ridge crest of Sch&ouml;nberg,
then a rather ill-defined line back to the Wildenseeh&uuml;tte. Within this
area, by far the majority of caves are above 1500m in an area from around Augst
See, along the major ridge line of Schwarzmooskogel towards Augst-Eck (forming
a long strip on the SE of the area), and across the plateau west of
Schwarzmooskogel.</p>

convenience, we have broken the area down into smaller areas, with a number of
