Cave description:
End of POV:
Next pitchhead is very tight and awkward. Traverse out till round corner.
Climb into slot down 1m then along another metre to bit wide enough to
descend. Pitch is 10m to larger floor. Against back wall a damp 5m descent
is possible to where watter disappears into slot. At rope 6m further decent
is possible. Very tight and grabby at the top - major PITA on return.
UNfortunately at this level pith series finally does become unquestionably
too tight.
QM? (over far side at top of Eiscream pitches):
Swing over from 3m below window. Large thread for rigging. Climb over thread
into rift, which descends 10m past a couple of narrowings 5m more rift can
be seen but is too tight to reach the floor. Water can be heard at the NW
end but again it's too tight to get to it.
South Utsira:
>From the T junction in North utsira you can turn right and climb up the steep
passage 20m. At the top a narrow tube goes up (05C). there is a window into
a aven and above it a 4m chimney which appears to connect with the passage
leading off from the topof the aven (04C). A passage leads round tothe left
to emerge on a bridge between two avens. You can climb up to the L over a
large chocked boulder and thus into a passage 7m up the western aven. 03X is
the top of this aven.

Traungold cave description
Entrance A leads to daylight chamber, down an awkward climb, whilst ent B is
a snow and boulder slope to the same chamber. To the right leads to another
chamber, with an upward slope about 3m up, which leads to ent h. Continuing
on stooping passage leads to a climb up to under steinbrucken ent efg (A
crawl at ground level between A & B leads to 'Ask dunks' (ent D)).
To the left the largest chamber is reached by a 3m climb down. From here
around to the left leads to entrance shaft C. A passage leads off this that
is walking height leading to climbs up over boulders with a loose ceiling
above. This leads to a T junction, which ends in boulders to the right and a
short climb to a dead end to the left (ask SiF ad SiL for more detail if
required). 
To the right in the largest chamber, a wide low short passage leads to an
ice-floored chamber. Crawling passage then leads to the deepest chmber,
which has an ice flow into and down the chamber. At the opposite end of the
chamber a 3m climb is reached, which has a spit at the top, 'ask dunks'.

<P class=psiint_1>Se off from the Bergresttaurant about lunchtime, after
ordering fore Gemkn&ouml;del in the said restaurant. Cargo was to black
water butts and the equipment to assemble the waterworks at 204. At the
Kratzer junction, there was a delay of 15 mins 'cos Martin's butt had
opened (it was being carried upside-down); thankfullyl no shit fell out.
Eventually arrived atTop Camp nd proceeded to 204. Nearly at 204, Martin
had anothr accident with the again. Earl + Mark took a detour to find a
quicker route from the slabs to 204, but ended up just finding
Gemkn&ouml;delh&ouml;hle [ed.: Germ...?], to the west of 204 by a few
hundred metres. A low entrance leads to a couple of chambers of a climb to
a higher entrance. Eventually Mark + Earl got to 204 (after investigating a
hole with a choke and a skeleton - chamois??). Set up some water-collecting
equipment and then walked back to the car park. Went to Base Camp. Food in

<P class=psiint_1>Survey down 24A QM from 2000, midway up on left in
Treeumphant passage. Easy passage heading up for 9 legs up to chamber with
way on continuing (probably) up easy but loose climb - needs a handline?
Then surveyed off lead just back from this climb heading down + south,
initially into small chamber with lots of snow and I thought I could see a
glimmer of daylight alcove. Passage continued on other side of chamber,
initially walking down v. atractive phreatic passage the becoming lower,
stooping. Had to turn back (after 5 hours surveying) to reach call-out
without finishing, so still an open lead. after 40 legs, I was still toasty
warm + hadn't put my balaclava on - regretted the extra furry on the way
out though. Survey called 'Crowning Glory'. T/U 7hrs 30min</P>

shunt - needed? on short climb up over pitch. After tootling back to find
us to say their bolts wouldn't set, we eventually realised they'd omitted
the cone. Ah. They went back, got up + into 100m passage, large, sloping up
+ they thought continuing the same direction as Treeumphant passage +
ending in a large aven with a further climb to do, to enter continuation of
passage. Martin + I surveyed up 41A, smallish walking passage heading
North, parallel to Treeumphant passage. Bridged over pitch, only ~5m down
but seemed to be a couple more pitches below from rocks bouncing + the
draft possibly came from it, not very large but fine except for large,
loose boulders at head of it. well worth looking at. We continued surveying
up to aven with mud pile on floor, + then another branch off left, passage
in tightish rift, small chamber to right, passage continued left into near
flat-out-crawl, deteriorating to flat out crawl. Stopped survey at
T-junction, ways L+R about large enough to continue but fortunately our
time was up. 30 stations in 4 hours. Met other two + headed out. (over 350m
surveying in 2 days). [bracket covering 5 lines from 'mud pile on floor' to

<P class=psiint_1>WE WERE DIRECTED TO CLIMBV THIS SHORT CLIMB BY MARTIN
&amp; BECKA. IF YOU READ THE ABOVE, THEY HAVE FILLED YOU IN ON OUR CLIMBING
ACTIVITIES. AFTER CLIMBING THE CLIMB, USING A SHUNT BECAUSE THEY CAN BE
MOVED EITHER DIRECTION ON A ROPE, SO THERE IS NO NEED TO CHANGE DEVICES; IN
TERMS OF ABSAILING OR PRUSSIKING DEVICES. THE POINT I PUT ACROSS WAS, THAT
USING A SHUNT IN THE [IWTIYI ??] EXPLORATION OF THE CLIMB WAS ESSENTIAL, AS
THAT I COULD HAVE CHANGED MY MIND ON CLIMBING UP AND THE SHUNT CAN EASILY
BE MOVED DOWN THE ROPE TOWWRDS ME IF REQUIRED. I NEVER SAID THAT A SHUNT
WAS REQUIRED, ITS SOMETHING THAT I USE AND SOMETHING/a DEVICE THAT I KNOW
ALOT OF PEOPLE WHO ALSO USE THEM. YOU CAN EASILY USE A COWSTAIL ON IT NOW.
i'LL STILL USE A SHUNT, LIKE I DO ON MOST HANDLINES I DO!</P>
<P class=psiint_1>ABOUT THIS CLIMB, THERE WAS ABOUT 100 METRES OF SLOPING

the points we'd surveyed underground, though GPS aren't so good at height.
Wandered right up to the bunde-covered peak then back down 204. Lots of big
shafts, then Martin found pitch down a thin rift. Put a cairn by it. MarkS,

Earl to put in 2 bolts for pitch down Martin + + went back passage + down
left, past snow chamber {put carbides out - Definately Daylight up there,
albeit only a glimmer). Down to end of where 11/8/01 survey had ended (down
wallking passage q. steep down). Continued surveying on until something
that looked like a pitch. Kicked rocks down then decided it was
freeclimable, called it Helter Skelter. Ended in a draughting hole with
boulders which looked like it could be squeezed over if you didn't mind
loose stuff or given a bit of crow-bar persuasion. We dug it a bit the
finished off the survey there + headed back to Earl. He'd just finished
rigging a hand-line (needs ~16 metres) + got down to the floor, avoiding
the pitch. He could scramble up a boulder slope the far side of the pitch +
said there was another pitch with passage continuing the other side,
needing bolting around the pith to gte to. We'd run out of rope, so headed
back down main passage (called Bouldercoaster?) + left immediately after
free-climb down to get shortcut back to Treeumphant via the QM28A. Did more
taping, &amp; showed Earl cave tree Chamber, then down to 53A. Earl thought
about putting a bolt in for pitch there but decided against it, poor hang +
not v.exciting pitch whilst Martin + I surveyed. We realised that 42B
joined to 53A, so we surveyed between the two starting at 42B. Finally,
still had a bi of time left so started surveying up 12B, which Mark Byers
had had a quick look up last year. Quickly became pretty low, wide passage
with nice mud on floor + white stals. Stopped surveying at station 7, at
top of small chamber. Out, goood, varied trip.</P>

~20m, until got to edge of very large pitch. 2+ second free drop + lovely
clean shaft. Surveyed all that. Back to chamber, continued surveying up
passage until popped out into&nbsp;</SPAN><SPAN

Ignored right passage + surveyed along passing several QMA's + getting 5
consecutive legs of over 20 metres. Finally ended in loose boulder slope
leading up to hole in ceiling. Do-able but not great - the passage high
above just before the boulder slope looked better. Back down the massive
phreatic passage + met Martin, Tony + Letty. Sent them to look at the big
stuff, whilt Earl + I surveyed up right where we'd popped out into big
stuff. Didn't go far, right ended in another boulder slope up, straight on

pitch under King Carbide just above pleasure dome. Pushed leads there which
all ended in pitches into pleasure dome, apart from one which was left
unpushed.</P>
<P class=psiint_1>We then went to look at the stuff of 12B, we surveyed one
of Earl abd Beckas side passages to find a number of white stalactites. We
then met Earl and Becka who showed us the way to Swings and roundabouts. We
had a toursit, then Tony I pushed a lead which looped back to a previous
part of Becka and Earls survey. Meanwhile Letty showed Earl and Becka the
side lead to confirm the connecting survey stations.</P>

<P class=psiint_1>Sat around until 5pm when it was sufficiently cool to walk
more than 5 yards without totally dehydrating. Surface surveyed from 204A
to a hole Becka had spotted earlier in the week via 2 other holes. The firs
is a small downhill crawl at the bottom of a shakehole, looked at by Mike
TA who declared it to be a dig [ now tagged 2001/02]. The second hole is a
short (~5m) downclimb with passage going off [now tagged 2001/03]. Survey
puts this straight over the colonnade in 04 (which boasts a couple of
avens). This hole had what appeared to be a freshly placed spit of unknown
provenance. Neither hole has been tagged yet, thought spits are placed for
this. The final hole was descended by MikeTA and MikeC the folowing
day...</P>

class=psispan_308>, Duncan, Mick &amp; Brian 204 15/8/01</SPAN></P>
<P class=psiint_1>Plan was for Mick &amp; Brian to bolt across a pit at the
northern extremity of &quot;Chocolate Salty Balls&quot; while me &amp;
Dunks caught up with the surveying backlog. Got to Cave Tree chamber to
find a rope hanging out of the roof and an Animal stood at the bottom -
hence 204 had its third entrance. We were warned that the pitch head was
&quot;rather loose&quot; but planned to go out that way. Surveying
proceeded at a reasonable pace, and we caught up with Mick &amp; Brian just
as Brian was preparing to place the last traverse bolt. At this point we
notied that there was no draught coming from across the pitch, so it came
as less of a surprise when Brian teetered across to find all of four feet
of cave. While we were there, we thought we might as well drop the pitch.
At the bottom is a short horizontal passage leading to another pitch. This
appears to be mderately deep as a stone rattled for 11 seconds down it
...</P>
<P class=psiint_1>Steamed on out and got to the bottom of the new entrance
pitch. Pitch was very nice until the last 5m where the rope appeared to
hang out of a &quot;rather loose&quot; boulder choke. Once off the rope,
the fun continues with an uphill squeeze through mobile boulders.</P>
<P class=psiint_1>If this pitch is to become a trade route, some serious
gardening must be performed because at the moment it is a deathtrap - one
of the loosest pitch heads Dunks or I have seen in Austria *</P>

<P class=psiint_1>Olly wants to call this traverse &quot;Too Hard For
CUCC&quot; (I think on the grounds that he couldn't drag anyone else up
here when there was 4k of open passage to be walked into on the other side
of the hill, till an unsuspecting oxford mug came along), but since he
bolted the entire traverse while I fell asleep on a pile of rope, it might
not be as appropiate as he'd hoped :-) [This smiley actually vertical -

<P class=psiint_1>Anyway, we (Olly) bolted the traverse, and found a loose
sand/rocks slope heading up a tunnel on the far side of the pitch chamber.

<P class=psiint_1>No naturals + I didn't have a bolt kit, so couldn't go any

<P class=psiint_1>Yesterday (18th - bit confused... ) we bolted/climbed up a
20m 45&deg; slope, beyond the sandy slope ( see writeup of Fri 17th). This
made us very happy, coz apparently the most promising-looking leads in KH
around the Theatre - the nearest part to where we are - are unbolted
up-pitches, so, we wanna get high&hellip;</P>
<P class=psiloc_326><SPAN class=psispan_327><IMG
SRC="sketch5.spr"></SPAN></P>
<P class=psiint_1>On the 19th we gained a rift passage at the top of the
45&deg; slope. It changes direction lots, has no roof or floor and is
confusing. It feels like we're heading up an inlet, or possibly we've
intersected one and could follow it up- or downstream. Going to plot
centreline to figure out what's happening&hellip;</P>
<P class=psiint_1>[Olly (while calculatig coordinates so we can figure out
where the hell we're going); &quot;Yay, we're 3mm further North&quot;]</P>
<P class=psiint_1>Following the rift upstream leads to a climb which I've
temporary-rigged (needs rigging as a pitch really). At the top you can go
left, right or up &hellip; TBC &hellip;</P>
<P class=psiloc_328><SPAN class=psispan_329><IMG

<P class=psiint_1>Mon 20th am (not a caving trip, just an admin sesh)</P>
<P class=psiint_1>The currently closest explored EH&#x0020;point to KH is
37m away. Our bolt traverse over Over The Top started 102m away. The first
day we got 32m closer. The second day we got 16m closer again. From this we
conclude that our approach to KH is an exponential decay to a asymptote at
38m separation. FFS. Shall we just go to the pub?</P>

<P class=psiint_4><U>[pic]</U></P>
<P class=psiint_3>then decided to check out the downstream direction of the
high-level rift, to see if it went anywhere different from downstream rift
at low level (i.e. where we'd come from). It doesn't [appear to], so we
surveyed + derigged it.</P>
<P class=psiint_3>The remaining lead is to continue climbing + traversing in
the upstream direction. Following upstream at floor level reaches (yet
another) drippy aven but (yet again), a few metres before the aven, it's
possible to climb the rift (which we've now done), and traverse across.
(The rift isn't confusing any more - linear, but hading and winding.)</P>
<P class=psiint_3>Top cave. Top 4 days. Don't know if I'm going back there,
but somone else should :-} And here's my most important Top Tip: wear
crampons that stay on your feet. Otherwise you end up doing a frighteningly
friendly dance with Olly in order to claw your way out of
Schneevulcanhalle. Euugghh.</P>

<P class=psiint_3>P.S. derigged the bolt traverse (Too Across)* and the
going-the-wrong-direction pitch from Fri 17th.</P>
