1623-114, 1623-228, 1623-81 , 1623-82, 1623-85, 1623-148. - Trying to identify entrances
+I got an early lift up with Charlotte and went off on my own to check out 1623-228 "Kleine Schnellzughoehle" where the survey looks suspiciously like 1623-114 (Lost Hole) which I know visually looks very much like a smaller version of Schnellzughoehle.

+I failed: the GPS position (fairly close to the Stoger Weg) is (2024) in completely impenetrable pine scrub. So either ArGE are incredibly hard, or the path has healed up since 2000, or they have recorded the wrong GPS position. I suspect that it is really the same as 114 and that they have the wrong GPS. +

+It was horrid: lower altitude and lots of curious cows meant lots of flies, cow flies, horse flies, humid scratchy larchen. Nasty. So I went on to the next target which was to check out some entrances lacking photos on the near part of the plateau. +

+I can say categorically that a GPS position is not sufficient to disambiguate entrances when there are 5 pits all within a few meters. One would need good photos and very clear descriptions. This is the case for 1623-81 and 1623-82, each of which has a 'b' entrance too. 85 was easily identified because the paint and tag were in place. Ditto 289, but I failed with 148 too. +
