Simon Farrow at the entrance of 76 during the initial exploration in 1977
","The first step is sprayed by meltwater, and the second step leads to -30m. A short rope leads to the next step. A rift follows an acute angle under the entrance way, some metres back. This section is very narrow, and over the narrow section pours a showerbath. Now a second squeeze leads to a fine pitch which bends back under the previous section. Then it gets complicated (the language, not the cave). It sounds like a series of either roomy or narrow wet pitches. Exploration appears to cease at -60m because of water down the neck and in the suit. It isn't clear if the cave actually stops at this point.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"1580m",,,"In Kratzer valley, some way up valley from Fledermaushöhle (Kat.71).",,,,,,"Lost", 74,"1/T +",,,,"noinfo/kratzer/74.htm",,,"Schneckenhaushöhle",,,4,"Edith Bednarik, 1977","Sounds like a free-climb to a snow choke (very much like B5, which must be in virtually the same place ?)",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"1600m",,,"In Kratzer valley, down valley from Fledermaushöhle (Kat. 71), on true right some way above bottom of valley.

The lower parts of the 1970s surveys are based on measurement of rope lengths and thus probably best categorised as Grade 2. The 2004 resurveyed depth for the taproom agrees closely with the 1970s surveys:
