<p>From this it can be seen that our area is composed of the massively bedded
white Dachsteinkalk limestone of Triassic age. The summit of the Loser and
adjacent peaks is more recent Jurassic limestones. The oldest of these,
particularly obvious in the Br&auml;uning Wall, are quite thinly bedded
Liassic marls. All these sediments have been pushed NNE in the
Totengebirgs-Decke, a massive thrust. This is bounded to the SW, roughly
along the line of the road from Altaussee to Blaa-Alm, by a thrust plane. SW
of this boundary, the surface is entirely composed of Jurassic sediments,
with little of speleological interest. To the SE, the Loser block is bounded
by a fault which runs along the NW shore of the Altausseer See. The
Trisselwand is composed of Jurassic limestone, younger than the Liassic
marls, and is also massively bedded and seems to contain at least some cave
development.

(higher than the one shown on the map above) where the Dachsteinkalk has

obvious in the local Salzbergwerk - salt mines). This suggests that the
situation is rather more complex than the single thrust depicted above,

nappe, with these lower beds inverted, and a shattered core at half the
depth of the Dachsteinkalk which would prevent exploration to great depth.

<p>The Dachsteinkalk all looks very similar, and much of the rock underground
is concealed by mud or breakdown, so it has proved very difficult to make any
meaningful observations. It has become clear, however, that all or most of
the vertical development in the caves is fault- or joint-guided, on two
roughly perpendicular sub-vertical sets of faults/joints. That some of these
are indeed faults is shown by clear offset of beds in a few places where
prominent shelly beds act as markers. Some faults are also apparent running

a fault running roughly at right angles to the main passage, and
Yapate Inlet, south of the fault, is formed in exactly the same
bed, but a few metres lower in altitude. The much later vadose
downcutting has revealed the lower beds including the two shelly
beds containing many fossil bivalves. These fossils stand out
particularly well on the wall of Staircase 36 itself, where they
provided much-needed holds for the climb.

<h1>Expo Personal Gear List</h1>
<P>First time on Expo: What should I take? Read on... No apologies are made for the simplistic approach, and
no responsibility is accepted for errors or omissions ;-) Make sure you have at least the Essentials;
consider taking the Extras for a more pleasant time, but don't fret if you can't get them. The Excessive
sections are for the gearists...</P>

omissions ;-) Make sure you have at least the Essentials; consider taking the
Extras for a more pleasant time, but don't fret if you can't get them. The
Excessive sections are for the gearists...</p>
<P>It's a good idea (for caving generally, but particularly for Expo) to settle on a particular combination
of colours of electrical insulation tape, and label absolutely everything you own with the stuff. To see
which combinations are available, have a look <a href="http://cucc.survex.com/cucc/tapes03.shtml">here</a>.
Tape <em>everything</em>, not just your caving gear; while one karabiner looks much like another, it's
equally true that one karrimat looks much like another. (One CUCC member has even been known to put gear tape
on his mobile phone!)</p>

<h3>Clothes</h3>
<p>Expo can be hot, cold, wet or dry, or (more usually) all of
these in rapid succession and combination!</p>
<UL>
<LI>Essentials
<UL>
<LI>Sunshades, sun cream, sunhat - do not underestimate the power of the
sun when wandering across the plateau!</LI>
<LI>Woolly hat, gloves.</LI>
<LI>Raincoat, jumpers, shirts, shorts, trousers - remember that denim isn'
t good when wet.</LI>
<LI>Underwear.</LI>
<LI>Socks - lots of them! Ideally ones that enable you to have at least
two pairs on when wearing your walking boots. You'll need to have some
drying and some to wear.</LI>
<LI>Boots - waterproof walking boots are better than non-waterproof
ones. Make sure you get ones with good ankle support, for boulder-hopping (have a look at some of the photos
of the plateau on this website and you'll see what I mean).</LI>
<LI>Trainers or other such footwear for wearing on the journey, into Bad
Aussee or when you've had enough of clumping round in boots.</LI>
</UL></LI>
<LI>Extras
<UL>
<LI>Waterproof over-trousers - highly recommended.</LI>
<LI>Gaiters - keeps the snow and/or water out of your socks.</LI>

<h3>Camping equipment</h3>
<UL>
<LI>Essentials
<UL>
<LI>Karrimat. Ideally a crap one you can afford to totally trash, as the floor of the stone bridge bivvy
consists of large and sharp stones. Therm-a-rests are not a good idea, for the same reason.</LI>
<LI>Sleeping bag - make sure it's warm, 3 season at least; it's not uncommon for there to be
a few inches of snow on the plateau.</LI>
<LI>Knife, fork, spoon, mug.</LI>
<LI>Plate, bowl and/or mess tin - choose the mess tin(s): you can use them both to cook in and eat
out of - less washing up! (Alternatively, get both, and leave the mess tins at the bivvy.)</LI>
<LI>Head torch (e.g. Zoom).</LI>
<LI>Batteries and/or charger for above. (We'll relax the gear-taping
directive for batteries...)</LI>
<LI>Cigarette lighter</LI>
</UL></LI>
<LI>Extras
<UL>
<LI>Second (rather lower-spec) sleeping bag, for using at base camp. This means you don't have to carry
your sleeping bag across the plateau every time.</LI>
<LI>Second karrimat, for the same reason.</LI>
<LI>Stove for top camp - ideally powered by petrol or paraffin.</LI>
<LI>Penknife - some people would regard this as essential.</LI>
<LI>Base camp tent - more or less any waterproof one will do. (The club does have some, but not that many,
and you are likely to end up sharing with lots of other smelly cavers!)</LI>
</UL></LI>
<LI>Excessive (this section could go on and on...)
<UL>
<LI>Inflatable pillow - if, like me, clothes in a stuff sack just don't
cut it...</LI>

<h3>Caving equipment</h3>
<UL>
<LI>Essentials
<UL>
<LI>Oversuit, undersuit, wetsocks, kneepads, wellies, helmet, gloves.</LI>
<LI>Shreddies - several pairs?</LI>
<LI>Light - preferably long-duration LED or carbide, or you'll be going down the hill
for recharging after every trip. If you use LED's, make sure you have enough batteries for 30-40 hours
caving between recharging stops; and don't forget to bring your charger! (A Continental plug adapter for it
might also be a good idea.)</LI>
<LI>Backup light - probably a small electric (Princeton Tec LED ones are good, but expensive).</LI>
<LI>SRT kit. Absolutely imperative that you gear tape up the bits.</LI>
<LI>Karabiners - the more the merrier! Have you ever seen someone with too
many?</LI>
<LI>Emergency whistle.</LI>
<LI>13mm spanner (open ended) for bolting. Good idea to attach it to yourself in some suitably clever
manner.</LI>
<LI>Dangly bag, large enough for:
<UL>
<LI>Spare batteries &amp; bulbs.</LI>
<LI>Spare carbide (in waterproof container!) if you use carbide.</LI>
<LI>Flapjack, fudge, chocolate bars, tube of condensed milk, etc.</LI>
<LI>Water bottle.</LI>
<LI>Survival bag (this could live in a pocket.)</LI>
<LI>Small first aid kit, in waterproof container, containing
<UL>
<LI>Candle - nightlight type is good.</LI>
<LI>Cigarette lighter/matches.</LI>
<LI>Plasters.</LI>
<LI>Bandage.</LI>
<LI>Any drugs you need, e.g. Asthma inhaler (should this be in your
pocket instead?).</LI>
</UL></LI>
<LI>Maybe your entire SRT kit too, if you're going through a tight
section or have a long way to go before you get to the pitches.</LI>
<LI>Sturdy bag or more suitable container, should you need to relieve
yourself of some solids in the cave...</LI>
</UL></LI>
</UL></LI>
<LI>Extras
<UL>
<LI>Thermal vest and leggings - could be essential. The caves are cold and
there will be periods of waiting around and slow survey work.</LI>
<LI>Balaclava - see above.</LI>
<LI>Those triangular maillons for putting on your gear loops on your
harness.</LI>
<LI>Emergency knife (in case you are involved in a mid-rope rescue - but make sure you know what you're
doing before you start slashing around!)</LI>
<LI>Pulley. Indispensable if you ever have to haul people, and a great help even for tackle sacks. The
Petzl Fixe P05 is adequate and cheap, but needs to be used with an oval krab.
</UL></LI>
<LI>Excessive
<UL>
<LI>Ice gear - ice axe, crampons, ice boots, ice screws, etc - essential
if you're tackling the icy areas of Eish&ouml;hle.</LI>
<LI>Skyhooks - pair of, for clawing your way across blank walls when
rigging.</LI>
<LI>Camera, packaged in a waterproof, highly visible, indestructible,
tiny, zero-mass box...</LI>
