<h1>Eish&ouml;hle area</h1>
<p>Starting from the Nipple (see <a href= "vianip.htm">walk-in
description</a>), a less obvious marked path continues.</p>
<p>A very large cave entrance, 20 minutes further on, is an old bivouac used by
the Munich cavers, and a few minutes later, a strongly draughting (out in
summer) tube about 5m in diameter is the main entrance to the <a
href="/1623/40/40.htm">Eish&ouml;hle</a>. This was also the site of
an old French bivouac, but must have been very cold. Continuing past a large
snow-choked entrance and a couple of small holes, all in a cliff to the left,
the path ends abruptly and unambiguously at the "new" entrance, also strongly
draughting. This is between one and a half and two hours from the car park.</p>
<p>In this area and along the path beyond are a number of entrances, mainly
discovered by CUCC and ARGE in their efforts to connect Eish&ouml;hle to
Kaninchenh&ouml;hle.</p>

<h1>Southern Schwarzmooskogel ridge: Stellerweg area</h1>
<p>This area was explored by CUCC in the early 1980's, and also by a large
number of other groups at various periods. There are two main means of
approach:</p>
<ul>
<li>The <a href="via201.htm">201</a> (Stoger Weg) path (which continues along
the hillside into the adjacent <a href="40area.html">Eish&ouml;hle
area</a>)</li>
<li>The <a href="vianip.htm">"Nipple"</a> (Wei&szlig;e Warze) path leading to
the higher entrances to the system.</li>
</ul>
<p>As well as the caves constituting the master 40-41-78-115-116-142-144-161
system, there are a number of smaller caves which have not (so far) been connected in [2016].</p>

<body>
<h1>Augstbach valley and villages</h1>
<body>
<h1>N &amp; NE shore of Altausseer See</h1>
<p>Altausseer See is a 2 km long glacier-carved lake south of the Loser
plateau. Its north shore lies on a significant fault which marks the
SE boundary of the block of limestone of which Loser is made. A number
of small resurgences feed the lake, but in dry weather none of those
above the surface carry anything other than very local drainage.</p>
<p>Within the lake are a number of <a href="resurge.html">underwater
resurgences</a>. These appear to lie on the fault itself, and explain
why the deepest points of certain caves coincide with the level of
Altausseer See at 712m above sea level.</p>
<p>In much wetter weather, water emerges from flood risings on the north shore
or much higher on the hillside. The closest to the lake, <a id="id2"
href="/1623/2.htm">Wasserl&ouml;cher</a>, is associated with a
significant cave, <a id="id1"
href="/1623/1.htm">Li&auml;gerh&ouml;hle</a>. Another major stream
course enters the lake further west, near some boat houses and places of
refreshment at the end of the motorable road. This is normally dry, but
apparently carries huge volumes of flood water from risings at about 1080m in
<b>Kiler Lahn</b>, a steep gully. We know of no documented caves in this gully,
which is in a rather inaccessible position.</p>
<p>To the northeast of the lake, ("behind" it, as seen from the village of
Altaussee) a glacier-carved valley rises to the pass of Hochklapf Sattel. A
steep path can be followed up through woodland to join the <a
href="via201.htm">St&ouml;gerweg path</a> from the <a
href="smkridge.html">Stellerwegh&ouml;hle area</a>, which continues NE
to <a href="wilden.html">Wildensee</a>. There are <a id="id51"

path, <a id="id68"

<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 a rather arbitrary line across the limestone between the
Sch&ouml;nberg and Neid Augst-Eck, not far beyond Tunnockschacht, then
down to the Wildenseeh&uuml;tte. To the west and north of this line is
area 1626.</p>
<div class="centre">
<a href="remote.html">
<img src="../tinypix/wildkg.jpg"
height="138" alt="Clearer View from Br&auml;ning Nase" />
</a>
</div>
<p>Access to the area is relatively easy at its southern edge, as the <a
href="../handbook/tollrd.html">Loser Panoramastra&szlig;e</a> (a toll road) climbs the
southern slopes of Loser to reach a large parking area and self-service
restaurant at 1600m just below Augst See.
<ul>
<li><a href="../handbook/tollrd.html">Loser Panoramastra&szlig;e</a></li>
</ul>
From the car park - now called "Loser Alm" and formerly just known as the
Bergrestaurant- good paths reach both the
southern slopes of Vd. Schwarzmooskogel, and also north to a col overlooking
the extensive pathless central plateau. Both the further reaches of the central
plateau and the areas around the Sch&ouml;nberg, Gries Kogel and Augst-Eck
ridges are remote - being large pathless areas of rough karren with little or
no water supplies except for snowmelt. The Stone-Bridge bivi site between the Hinter Schwarmooskogel and
Neid Augst-Eck makes it practical to
expore this area.</p>
<p>Within this area (1623), 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>
<div style="text-align: center">

<p class="caption">Plateau visualisation from Aven - looking towards Br&auml;uning Nase and Loser with SMK system caves superimposed</p></div>
<p>There are approaching two hundred caves known at present in the area, so for
convenience, we have broken the area down into smaller areas, with a number of
related caves in each. Some of these areas are natural - separated by clear
geographic boundaries like big cliffs, or areas of non-karstic rocks. Others
are more arbitrary, and are defined more by route of access than by any real
geographical distinction. Apart from a few caves found in the first couple of
years, CUCC's work has been confined to just the first four of these smaller
areas, though the map overlaps onto most of the others.</p>

<h1>Br&auml;uning Alm and Br&auml;uning Kunntal</h1>
<p>Following marked path 201 (St&ouml;gerweg) from the Bergrestaurant
northwest, a signposted junction is met, below a ski-lift. Left here leads
over the minor peak of Lackerbichl and on to Br&auml;uning Alm. To the NW
of this peak is the closed depression of Br&auml;uning Kunntal, a doline
deep enough to merit a ski-lift climbing out of it. Two small springs,
below the rim to ENE and ESE, feed into a bog with no speleological
potential.</p>
<div class="centre"><a href="l/kuntal.htm"><img alt="link to 60k photo"
src="t/kuntal.jpg" /></a><p class="caption">From Lackerbichl over Br&auml;uning
Kuntal towards Br&auml;uning Alm and the Br&auml;uning Wall.</p></div>
<p>Br&auml;uning Alm is more conveniently approached by continuing on the
main path to a further signposted junction at <a href="egglgrub.html">
Egglgrube</a>. Ahead, the path climbs a small scar, but left, posted to
Br&auml;uning Zinken, the path traverses above a small valley to reach a
group of huts serving the summer pasture of Br&auml;uning Alm. Springs below
the huts feed into sinks in the valley bottom, but these offer no
significant cave.</p>

<p>To the east of the pasture is an area of limestone scars, with another
grassy area, used by CUCC for a brief top camp (<a
<a href="l/tc77a.htm">camp 1</a>) in 1977. There are a few entrances
in the limestone here, and more in the valley north of the huts, leading toward
the col of Br&auml;uning Sattel. Areas of scars between this valley and the
ridge used by the <a href="walkin.htm">path to the plateau</a> have
not been looked at in any detail by CUCC, but are thought to have been
prospected by the Austrians with no results.</p>

<h1>Egglgrube and Scharlingkar area</h1>
<p>This area lies east of the Bergrestaurant, SE of the main Loser to
Br&auml;uning Zinken ridge. Best seen from the summit of Sommersitz,
the area is bounded to the SE by the first of a line of cliffs dropping
towards Altausseer See and the valley to its NE. This cliff is Scharlingkar,
and the pasture above it is Egglgrubenalm.</p>
<p>Following marked path 201 (St&ouml;gerweg) from the Bergrestaurant
northwest, the start of the area lies below and to the right. Above and to
the left initially is the <a href="loser.html">Augst See area</a>.
After passing below the small peak of Sommersitz, a signposted junction is
met, below a ski-lift. Left here leads over the minor peak of Lackerbichl and
on to <a href="br-alm.html">Br&auml;uning Alm</a>. Continuing on the
main path leads to a further signposted junction at <b>Egglgrube</b>, marked
on the map. Left again leads to Br&auml;uning Alm, ahead, the path climbs a
small scar, leading to the eastern side of <a
href="smkridge.html">Schwarzmooskogel ridge</a> in the
Stellerwegh&ouml;hle area. A little used and barely discernible path leads
right, and back SW below the initial approach, past a hut at the bottom of a
ski lift to a group of older huts.</p>
<p>An alternative approach starts from just above the (right hand) hairpin of
the toll road, dropping down towards the top of Scharlingkar, and then
contouring to reach the huts. This is the original path from the Loser
H&uuml;tte, predating the building of the toll road, which explains its
somewhat illogical-seeming point of departure.</p>
<p>Most of the caves listed in this area are very near Egglgrube itself,
which seems to have been investigated in the early years of exploration in
the area. The area also includes odd caves near or below the path from the
Bergrestaurant.</p>

<h1>Gschwandt Alm</h1>
<p>This is a comparatively out-of-the-way area with few known caves. It lies NW
of the Loser to Br&auml;uning Zinken ridge, below the cliffs of these peaks
and above another steep drop, the St&ouml;ckl Wand, which falls to the head
of the Rettenbach - the stream which takes the Naglsteg water and flows WNW
to Bad Ischl.</p>
<p>Three approaches are possible, though one is much longer than the others,
unless you are based at CUCC's <a href="../handbook/tcamps.html">Old Top Camp</a>,
in which case it is by far the shortest!</p>
<p>From the <a href="../handbook/tollrd.html">toll road</a>, starting at the Loser
H&uuml;tte, a path heads west, parallel to and just above the road. It is
joined by a track which leaves the road at Kehre 11, just above the ski area
parking and bus stop. Immediately beyond the junction is the small
resurgence of <a href="/1623/6.htm">1623-6</a>, worth knowing
about if you boil your radiator going up the toll road! The track continues
west, dropping slightly to reach the top of a big ski lift coming up from the
valley at Ramsau. A path now continues, following the contours round NW, then
N, and finally turns east below the wall of Loser. This leads above the top
of St&ouml;ckl Wand, and below the slopes and screes falling from Greimuth,
to reach a large group of huts situated just above a permanent spring. This
is Gschwandt Alm.</p>
<p>From the Bergrestaurant, follow path 201, and take any of three left
turns, the first two leading over Sommersitz or Lackerbichl, but all
eventually reaching Br&auml;uning Alm. From here, the <i>voie normale</i> of
Br&auml;uning Zinken leads west as a clear path just above and NE of
Gschwandt Sattel. From this point, a much less used route zig-zags down steep
slopes directly to Gschwandt Alm.</p>
<p>The third route starts by approaching CUCC's Top Camp (Camp 3) just to the
NW of Schwarzmoossattel, or, for the very intrepid, by crossing the steeper
Br&auml;uning Sattel, leading down directly to the camp. A cairned route
over karren and through dwarf pine leads roughly west until a better defined
path materialises and turns more southwest and descends gently to Gschwandt
Alm.</p>

<h1>Kratzer valley</h1>
<p>The Kratzer valley is the main valley south from Schwarzmoossattel. However,
it is not the one followed by the path down to Br&auml;uning Alm, which
traverses the east slopes of Br&auml;uning Nase to reach a small col and slopes
west of Kratzer. The narrow valley itself may be entered at the top (north) end
by dropping below the path just after it leaves the Schwarzmoossattel. The
inner reaches are then relatively inaccessible, as they are separated from the
dwarf-pine covered slopes up to Br&auml;uning Alm by a cliff band. Similarly,
cliffs on the other side isolate it from the SW slopes of Vorderer
Schwarmooskogel.</p>
<p>Consequently, few of CUCC have explored the valley since the initial trip of
1976, and most of the caves hereabouts have been entered by the local cavers
(at the north end). The locals were exploring and numbering caves around the
time when CUCC looked in the valley, and there is a suspicion that some of the
"Austrian" numbers refer to the same caves looked at by CUCC. However, the
supposed correlation between CUCC and kataster numbers mentioned in the
Austrian caving journal does not seem to be correct, from evidence gathered on
a visit in 1990, so CUCC's caves appear here with their original CUCC numbers,
pending more investigation.</p>
<p>There is a suspicion that one of the German groups may have explored some
other entrances near the bottom of the valley (marked with red paint, but not
in the kataster), but we have no documentation on these.</p>
<p>If the valley is followed down, it leads into a closed depression with a low
point at 1527m, not at all obvious from the map. A steep climb up leads to a
more level section, where a path materialises, to meet the marked path 201
(St&ouml;gerweg) as the north branch of a T-junction at c 1580m. Straight on
(initially south for a short way) is the Stellerweg area <a
href="via201.htm">approach route</a>, whilst right (west) is the
route from <a href="egglgrub.html">Egglgrube</a> and the
Bergrestaurant. The first part of this path into Kratzer from the south appears
to be well-used <b>only</b> because of people missing this T-junction and going
some way before realising the error.</p>

<p>A view from the junction of paths at Egglgrube. Off right, out of the
picture, is the continuing path 201 towards the Stellerweg area. Off left is
the arriving path 201 from the Bergrestaurant. Ahead is the small valley
full of choked sinkholes which leads up to Br&auml;uning Alm. The walk-in to
the plateau goes up here towards the Br&auml;uning Wall, seen on the
skyline. The 1977 high camp was on a flat grassy area behind the sunlight
limestone in the centre of the view. The path crosses the wooded slopes
above this, and reaches the plateau via the col of Schwarzmoossattel, just
where the skyline crosses the right hand edge of the photo.</p>

<p>This is a view of the huts of Br&auml;uning Alm seen from the most frequently
used path approaching the Schwarzmoossattel and the plateau. The nearest sunlit
patch of pasture, to the left of the photo, was the site of the 1977 high camp,
situated here as the springs left of the huts were the nearest water supply we
had then discovered to the plateau. A few caves nearby were explored, but most
work was done by walking a further ten-fifteen minutes to reach the plateau.</p>

<p>Water sinking in the huge closed depression of Br&auml;uning Kunntal (left)
rises from small springs on the near side of a broad grassy col at Br&auml;uning
Alm (shepherds' huts, right of centre). Springs on the other side of the col
were the water supply for the 1977 high camp. There has been little found of
speleological interest in this area of pasture. CUCC's route to the plateau
passes the huts and ascends the rocky pine-covered slopes behind, to the col to
the right of the Br&auml;uning wall. Kaninchenh&ouml;hle is on the sunny slopes
of the Hinterer Schwarzmooskogel on the skyline to the right.</p>

<p>Note that at this point one is leaving the main signposted paths and so
"begehen auf eigene gefahr". Though in fact the path is fine until the Schwartzmooss&auml;ttel.

<h1>Loser, Hochanger and Augst See</h1>
<p>This area includes all those caves most conveniently reached from the <a
href="../handbook/tollrd.html">Loser Panoramastra&szlig;e</a>'s Bergrestaurant by
walking up past Augst See, or from the Loser H&uuml;tte by the direct path
onto Loser. It is bounded to the west and northwest by cliffs falling
towards Ramsau or <a href="gschwand.html">Gschwandt Alm</a>, to the
northeast by the Greimuth - Atter Kogel - Sommersitz ridge, which separates
it from the large closed depression of <a href="br-alm.html">
Br&auml;uning Kunntal</a>, and to the southeast by the path to Egglgrube,
below which lies <a href="egglgrub.html">Egglgrubenalm and Scharling
Kar</a>.</p>
<p>All the caves are most conveniently approached from the Bergrestaurant or
the Loser H&uuml;tte. The Augst See is reached in under five minutes from
the main car park by following the very obvious, signposted, uphill path.
Continuing past the large sink, round the right hand (northeast) side of
this lake, a path departs NW onto the lower slopes of Greimuth, and
traverses round to reach the main ridge at Loser Fenster - a remarkable
window in the narrow summit ridge, through which is an extensive view over
Gschwandt Alm and to the further peaks north to the Sch&ouml;nberg. The
path continues obvious, over Hochanger, to be joined by a direct (and much
steeper) path from the Loser H&uuml;tte, just before reaching the summit of
Loser, an excellent viewpoint.</p>
<p>The direct path from the Loser H&uuml;tte starts as an obvious ascending
track from the back of the hut. This is the best approach route for a few of
the caves which are at the foot of the south face of Loser, reached by
traversing west from this path some 120m above the hut.</p>
<p>Also from the hut, an old path leads NE a little above the toll road,
which it meets just after the final hairpin. The road goes below the cliff
line of Dimmelwand, where a number of the caves are situated. It is not
entirely clear whether all these caves remain accessible since the building
of the toll road.</p>

<h1>The Loser Augst-Eck plateau</h1>
<p>The area CUCC calls <b>The Plateau</b> is situated north of the
Br&auml;uning wall. To the west it drops off into Gr&uuml;ne Bichl, a large
valley (relatively unvisited) which marks one boundary with the adjacent <a
href="/1626/index.html">1626</a> kataster area. To the north it continues
further than most are prepared to walk over the rough limestone. Work done
beyond CUCC's normal limit is considered under <a
href="remote.html">&quot;Further&quot; plateau and out to
Augst-Eck.</a> North of this is also area 1626. To the east, the plateau starts
to rise towards the long Schwarzmooskogel ridge, and we take the break of slope
as a rather arbitrary boundary with the western slopes of the next area, the <a
href="smkridge.html">Schwarzmooskogel ridge</a>.</p>

</div>
<h3>Access</h3>
<p>The <a href="walkin.htm">route to the plateau</a> takes between 25 and
45 minutes, depending on weather, load and fitness. This is to reach the start
of the karren at the <span lang="de-at">Schwarzmoosattel</span>; it can take
another hour or more to reach a particular cave.</p>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>From the Schwarzmoossattel at 1684m, the plateau stretches out to the north,
looking relatively level. On the map it appears gently undulating, rising from
steeper slopes above Gr&uuml;ne Bichl to the west, levelling off about 1600m,
and reaching 1700m in the east where slopes rise to the Schwarzmooskogel ridge.
Far to the north, the bare limestone peaks of Sch&ouml;nberg, Gro&szlig;e and
Kleine Wild Kogel and Grie&szlig; Kogel rise to over 2000m.</p>
<div class="centre"><a href="../piclinks/wildkg.htm">
<img src="../tinypix/wildkg.jpg" width="168" height="123"
alt="View of plateau from near Schwarzmoossattel" /></a></div>
<p>Once down onto the plateau, the reality is a little different, as
small-scale relief is made up of pavements and cliffs of up to 10m. One bit
looks very much like another and an intermittent covering of impenetrable
thickets of dwarf pine (known as <i>Pinus mugo</i> to botanists, L&auml;rchen
to the Austrians, and, for historical reasons, 'Bunde' within CUCC) also help
to make progress and navigation very difficult. Sharp rocks and open shafts
lie everywhere, awaiting the unwary.</p>

<p>Potential new caves are frequent, although the plateau is characterised by
snow- and scree-choked open shafts. <a
href="../handbook/look4.htm">Prospecting</a> is time-consuming, and it's worth
looking <i>very carefully</i> for a painted number or other signs of previous
exploration (eg. bolts) before entering.</p>
<p>There has been a very significant number of recorded finds on the plateau, since the earliest years of CUCC's
work.</p>

<h1>Far plateau to <span lang="de-at">Grie&szlig; Kogel</span> and
<span lang="de-at">Augst-Eck</span></h1>
<p>Beyond the comparatively accessible area of plateau just over the
<span lang="de-at">Schwarzmoossattel</span> lies a vast
area of limestone karren and dwarf spruce. Exploration is deterred by the
lack of paths, almost complete absence of water supplies and possible places
to camp and just general inaccessibility. This is the main area of CUCC exploration since 2000.</p>

An area right at the far edge of the 1623
area, described as "SE face of <span lang="de-at">Kleines Augst-Eck",</span>
may prove to mean the SE face of <span lang="de-at">Nieder Augst-Eck,</span>
which could be included in the
<a href="wilden.html"><span lang="de-at">Schwarzmooskogel</span> to
<span lang="de-at">Wildensee</span></a> area, but this is sufficently
uncertain that we treat it here. </p>
<p>Lancaster University Speleological Society held two expeditions (in 1987
and 1988) into an area on the very northern edge of 1623, and most caves they
found were in the adjoining 1626 area. The approach to this area around
<span lang="de-at">Ro&szlig;kogel</span> was from the
<span lang="de-at">Wildenseeh&uuml;tte,</span> after a long approach on foot
from <span lang="de-at">Grundlsee.</span> LUSS produced good printed reports
for each of their trips, and details are included of those finds which appear
to be south of the rather ill-defined 1623/1626 "border".</p>
<p>The University of Bristol Speleological Society also held two small
expeditions (in 1989 and 1990) into an area near the LUSS one. Unlike LUSS,
they did not contact any member of CUCC (or, as far as we are aware, any of
the Austrian cavers) for information, nor had we been able to obtain many
details of their finds. However, Dan Harries sent a copy of their report on
BS17 Organh&ouml;hle, whose description is included here and which CUCC revisted in 2017.</p>
<p>The list of caves below was up to date in about 1999.

<h1> Surface Walk-in Guidebook</h1>
<h2>Altausseer See north shore vauclusian risings</h2>
<p>A walk around Altausseer See reveals few streams flowing in to the lake,
but a sizeable river flowing out, fuelling speculation that there were
one or more underwater risings in the lake. CUCC were told that an area
along the northern edge of the lake, below the cliffs of Steinwand, did
not freeze over in winter, despite the rest of the lake being fit for
skating and curling for most of the season.</p>
<p>This part of the lake was dived by John Cordingley, Andy Goddard, Mike
Thomas and Phil Murphy, members of the Cave Diving Group, in 1989. The dives
were most notable for the discovery of a body and recovery of a right
humerus, belonging to someone who had drowned in 1955, but the source of the
water was also found. Water rises in many tiny blowholes in a 30m square
area at a depth of -36m, each blowing up sand up to 1.5m above the lake bed.</p>
<div class="centre"><a href="../piclinks/jncalt.htm"><img
src="../tinypix/jncalt.jpg" width="124" height="199" alt="" /></a></div>
<p>Further dives by CDG with Hubert Gaisberger and Wolfgang Gasperl (divers
from the local fire brigade) revealed no way into the system, but did
recover the foot belonging to the leg. The very hung-over group also had
great fun with the fire-brigade's big red speedboat.</p>
<p>Although one of the divers suggested the name "Rancid dead person
spring", it seems more appropriate to use "Steinwandquelle", as suggested
by John Cordingley.</p>

<h1><span lang="de-at">Schwarzmooskogel</span> ridge</h1>
<p>Exploration in the last few years of the last century showed that though a variety of
different approach walks are needed to visit various parts of the
long ridge on the SE side of area 1623, many of the significant caves
form part of a single, very extensive, system.</p>
<p>In the southern part, the <span lang="de-at">Vorderer
Schwarzmooskogel</span> (1843m), the area is bounded on the west by steep
scars into the <a href="kratzer.html"><span
lang="de-at">Kratzer</span> valley</a> and to the south and southeast by the
cliffs of <span lang="de-at">Wei&szlig;e Wand,</span> below which lies <a
href="aausee.html"><span lang="de-at">Altausseer See</span></a> and
the <span lang="de-at">Hoch Klapf</span> valley to its NE.</p>
<p>The ridge runs NNE, with a col at 1755m, before rising to the <span
lang="de-at">Hinterer Schwarzmooskogel</span> at 1906m. To the west of this,
the area slopes down to the bare karren of the <a
href="plateau.html">plateau</a>. Steeper slopes to the east drop into
the <span lang="de-at">Hoch Klapf</span> valley which marks the boundary with
the adjacent kataster region 1624. There is no real boundary to the north or
northeast - just a limit to how far we have yet looked. Currently this is
some distance further NE beyond the summit of the <span lang="de-at">Nieder
Augst-Eck.</span> Beyond this,
they fall into the <a href="remote.html">remote plateau</a> or <a
href="wilden.html"><span lang="de-at">Wildensee</span></a> areas, as
listed here.</p>
<p>The area is more densely covered with dwarf mountain pine than the plateau
or other minor areas we have looked at, with a few "real" trees dotted about
too. This tends to restrict <a href="../handbook/look4.htm">prospecting</a>
to narrow corridors of access on established routes (these can hardly be
described as paths).</p>
<p>Five approaches are in use:</p>
<ul>
<li><span lang="de-at"><a href="via201.htm">Stogerweg</a></span> - path 201,
for entrances low on the S and E side of the ridge</li>
<li>The <a href="vianip.htm">"Nipple"</a> path to the entrances higher up the
hill, and beyond this the Eish&ouml;hle area.</li>
<li>Via the <span lang="de-at"><a href="viavsk.htm">Vd.
Schwarzmooskogel</a></span> summit for entrances near it - several variants are
possible here. This route has somewhat fallen out of use recently, and it has
become more usual to take the 161 path then hack southwards along the crest of
the ridge.</li>
<li>An established <a href="via161.html">route</a> to <span
lang="de-at">Kaninchenh&ouml;hle</span> and down the east side.</li>
<li>A <a href="via204.html">route</a> from Top Camp across the plateau, via the
large bare patch of limestone on the side of the Hinter (visible from Top Camp)
across to <a href="/1623/204/204.html"><span
lang="de-at">Steinbr&uuml;ckenh&ouml;hle</span></a>.</li>
</ul>
There are corresponding lists of caves in the areas covered by each walkin:
<ul>
<li><a href="41area.html">Stellerweg area</a> (access routes 1+2)</li>
<li><a href="40area.html">Eish&ouml;hle area</a> (access route 2)</li>
<li><a href="via161.html">161 area</a> (access route 4) - this roughly covers
the area between the peaks of the Vorder and Hinterer Schwarzmooskogels.</li>
<li><a href="via204.html">Steinbr&uuml;cken area</a> (access route 5) - this
covers more or less everything north of the peak of the Hinter, as well as the
161g and 161h entrances.</li>

<h1>Western slopes of Schwarzmooskogel to the col and down</h1>
This is normally approached from the west by crossing the edge of the plateau
to the NE of Schwarzmoos Sattel. CUCC's "path" is to the col between Vorderer
and Hinterer Schwarzmooskogel, where there is a permanent survey station
"vd1". Up the ridge to the left leads to the original
<a href="/1623/161/top.htm">161a</a> entrance, whilst just ahead down a gully lie
161b and <a href="../1623/161/france.htm#id161c">161c</a>.

<p>Further down the gully, dropping about 100m following a series of cairns,
is the route to the 161 "back" entrances. Where the gully starts to choke
with pine, an exit left is possible (still with cairns), which leads to an
engineered traverse through an area of pine, then a series of scrambles and
traverses (unpleasant in the wet) down to an area of recent stone fall in
which lies the <a href="../1623/161/sftotp.htm#mothshag">161d</a> "Scarface"
entrance.

width=155 height=86></a></center>
<p>From the <a href="../handbook/tollrd.htm">Loser Panoramastra&szlig;e</a>
Bergrestaurant car park (bottom right of picture), take the path leading from
the NE corner, which is slightly shorter, and soon joins the main path.
Alternatively, follow the main touroid path, numbered 201, and marked with
red and white paint at frequent intervals (heading up left of centre in the
picture). Following this gently undulating path for ten to fifteen minutes
leads to <a href="egglgrub.html">Egglgrube</a>. To the left is a
valley containing several obvious sinkholes, with a junction path leading to
<a href="br-alm.html">Br&auml;uning Alm.</a> Ahead and to the right
is a 10m cliff rising from the pasture to an area of karren and dwarf pine.
<p>Follow the main path 201 straight ahead up a break in the small cliff and
continue over karren which is well covered with L&auml;rchen (dwarf pine,
spuriously known as "Bunde" within CUCC). A T-junction is met, left leading
into the <a href="kratzer.html">Kratzer valley</a> (an area explored
by the German group), while right is the main path. This junction is easy to
miss on the return in mist or at night. A few minutes further on, where a
cave is marked by a large red Omega in the middle of the path
(<a href="../1623/28.htm">1623/28</a>), there is a junction path
to the left (route to <a href="vianip.htm">the Nipple</a>), and
<a href="../handbook/survey/lasers.htm">Laser-fixed point 7/8</a> marked with
a bolt.

<p>The main 201 path beyond 1623/28 leads after several minutes to a strongly
draughting entrance on the left numbered
<a href="../1623/32.htm">32</a>. To the left after this
are routes to <a href="41.htm">41</a>, <a href="/1623/141.htm">141</a> and
<a href="../1623/142.htm">142</a> and the original approaches to 143 and 144. The
main path descends steeply for a while; <a href="../1623/115.htm">115</a> lies
downhill to the right. Ahead, <a href="../1623/87.htm">87</a> lies up a valley
to the left, and considerably further, paint marks lead left to
<a href="../1623/109.htm">109</a> and <a href="../1623/113.htm">113</a>
(Sonnenstrahlh&ouml;hle). 151-155 are also up left hereabouts.
<p>If the main path is followed considerably further, it joins the path
from <a href="aaussee.html">Altausseer See</a> through
Hochklapfsattel into a 174m deep doline, around a kilometre long, and
eventually to Appel Haus and the <a href="wilden.html">Wildensee</a>.
Just near this junction it is possible to gain access to the Scarface
(<a href="../1623/161/sftotp.htm">1623/161d</a>) entrance to
<a href="../1623/161/top.htm">Kaninchenh&ouml;hle</a>, but the route is
non-obvious and much obstructed by the dwarf pine - CUCC found this approach
to be too hard and instead used an approach as for
<a href="via161.html">161a</a>. Much futher on, high up to the left, on
Ro&szlig;kogel, is the area explored by LUSS (mainly in Kataster area
<a href="../1626/index.html">1626</a>).

<h1>Northern slopes of Hinterer Schwarzmooskogel and Nieder Augst-Eck</h1>
<p>There is a well-established path to Top Camp (bivouac site at the stone
bridge), which has been the usual base for CUCC's operations on the Schwarzmooskogel
ridge north of the 161 area since about 2001. This is marked with carefully placed chain of cairns, which
are augmented at the beginning of each expedition with reflective markers
(collected in again at the end of the expo).</p>
<p>Follow the usual path from the Bergrestaurant car park to the
Schwarzmoossattel. Rather than contouring around the base of the Nase as for old
Top Camp, strike out to the right across the patch of boggy grass. From here,
various variants of the path lead past the entrance to Br&auml;uningh&ouml;hle
(1623/82) and continue northwards to Laser Point 5.</p>
<p>Shortly after this is the beginning of a patch of bare limestone slabs,
clearly visible from Schwarzmoossattel, which marks the highest point of the route. The
unmistakable arched entrance of Hauchh&ouml;hle marks the end of this section,
and from here a slightly confusing broken area dotted with patches of dwarf pine
brings one out at the entrance to Steinbr&uuml;ckenh&ouml;hle.</p>

knoll known as The Nipple (German groups call this <span lang="de">Wei&szlig;e

whilst caves <a href="143.htm">143</a> and <a href="144.htm">144</a> are on the

<h1>Approach via summit of Vorderer Schwarzmooskogel</h1>
<p>Although relatively close to the
<a href="../handbook/tollrd.htm">Bergrestaurant</a> in pure distance terms, the summit
area of the <span lang="de-at">Vorderer Schwarzmooskogel</span> is an
inaccessible location, hedged around with small cliffs and patches of dwarf
pine.
<p>There are three possible approaches, of varying merits, and which is used
depends as much on the favoured starting point, as on anything else. From
the Bergrestaurant itself, it is possible (though not easy) to follow the
<a href="vianip.htm">Nipple path</a>, not as far as the Nipple itself, then
hack up towards the summit, possibly via Schwabenschacht. However, this is
only really useful if also visiting caves near this path.
<p>A second approach, equally usable from the road or from <a
href="../handbook/tcamps.html#id1977camp">first 1977 Top Camp</a> is a direct assault of the small
cliffs and dwarf pine from the Schwarzmoossattel, or slightly down valley.
This appears to be the route used most frequently when the summit area caves
were explored in the early eighties, but has not been used recently.
<p>The "modern" approach is to follow the 161 approach, hacking off at
either of two points, depending on whether caves east or west and north
of the summit are the destination.
<p><a href="../piclinks/vs1843.htm"><img alt="summit pic" width=140
height=160 align=left hspace=10 vspace=10 src="../tinypix/vs1843.jpg"></a>
For the north and west, a recently cairned path seems to be the most
popular approach to the summit by walkers, and is clearly destined to
become increasingly clear with traffic. Indeed, it is becoming an easy
route for those approaching 161 and the col to get side-tracked onto.
It ascends close to <a href="../handbook/survey/lasers.htm">laser point</a>
0/1, and the small group of nearby entrances, the most obvious of which is
the open shaft of <a href="../1623/156/156.html">1623/156.</a> This should be skirted on
the left (uphill, east) side. Following the cairned route through various
patches of pine leads to the summit, not obvious until you are almost upon
it.
<p>The route taken by early eighties surface surveys, to caves on the east
side of the summit (and perhaps best
for those based at Top Camp familiar with the route to
<a href="../1623/161/top.htm">Kaninchenh&ouml;hle</a>), is to go along a traverse
route marked with orange paint (by a French caving group, we believe), from
the 161c entrance. This path leads below <a href="../1623/162.htm">162</a> and
<a href="/1623/163/index.html">163</a> to lead eventually towards the
<a href="40area.html">Eish&ouml;hle area</a>, between Kaninchenh&ouml;hle
and <a href="../1623/41/41.htm">Stellerwegh&ouml;hle.</a> This zone has various caves
not explored by CUCC, and as such was neglected by us for many years.
However, around 2000 it became clear that it was a critical area beneath which
the much sought-after connection between the two biggest caves in the area must
lie, and it received much attention from both CUCC and Arge for several years
(although the connection was eventually found elsewhere). See, for example, the
<a href="../years/2000/goals.htm">2000 Expo goals document</a>. This area can
also be accessed via the <a href="vianip.htm">Nipple path</a>, which was the
main access route for the CUCC explorations in Eish&ouml;hle.

small springs. The route to Br&auml;uning Zinken passes these huts to reach
the col to the left of the biggest peak - however this area is of little
speleological interest. Our path crosses to east side of the valley and
continues past a small limestone scarp on the right.</p>

<p>Above this scarp is another flat area of pasture, the site of CUCC's <a
href="../handbook/tcamps.html#id1977camp">advance camp</a> of 1977. The path also climbs
this scarp a little further on, turning right (not very obvious) out of the
continuing main valley. If the valley is followed up (this was our normal
route in 1976 and 1977), the same destination can eventually be reached by a
slightly rougher walk, as the path fades out in limestone pavement.</p>

<p>The main path leads to short climbs up and breaks out onto a ridge between
the above-mentioned valley and the much deeper <a href="kratzer.html">
Kratzer valley,</a> access to which is difficult at this point owing to steep
limestone scars. Continuing, the path converges with the 1976 route coming in
from the left at a small col, then contours below the small peak of
Br&auml;uning Nase to the left. Ahead is the site of CUCC's <a
href="../handbook/tcamps.html#id1979camp">bivouac of 1979</a>, and, slightly beyond, the
broad col of Schwarzmoossattel.</p>
<p><a href="plateau.html">The plateau</a> lies directly ahead over this col, and may be reached by any
of several routes through dwarf pine, with various amounts of scrambling.
The whole area is pathless and very rough, though a few routes are marked
by hunters with sporadic cairns. In recent years we have cairned a route
(it is not a path) from just below the col (via a hidden climb down) to
the Steinbr&uuml;cken top camp bivvy. Every year we repair the cairns and
place reflectors on them just for the period that expo is running.</p>
<p>Following the path round to the left (WNW) soon leads to a big cairn and
a short scramble down to the old <a href="../handbook/tcamps.html#topcamp">Top Camp</a>, which
has been used by CUCC between 1988 and 2000. This is adjacent to the only reliable
water supply we have found, situated below the dramatic Br&auml;uning wall.
Please take care not to pollute the spring! Note that this camp site is
still within the area designated as a &quot;Naturschutzgebiet&quot; (Nature
Reserve) and permission is required to camp there.</p>
<p>The path continues below the Br&auml;uning wall to the west, eventually to
reach the inaccessible pasture of <a href="gschwand.html"> Gschwandt
Alm</a> north of Loser.</p>
<p>Turning right off the path shortly before old top camp cairned
routes across the plateau lead eventually to the 76 bivouac location and then
the Stone Bridge (Steinbr&uuml;cken).</p>

<h1>East of Schwarzmooskogel/Augst-Eck ridge to Wildensee</h1>
Beyond the much-explored area containing Stellerwegh&ouml;hle and the
Schwarzmooskogeleish&ouml;hle, SE facing slopes dropping from the long
Schwarzmooskogel to Augst-Eck ridge continue for another 3km. The steep
cliff band of Wei&szlig;e Wand below the St&ouml;gerweg path is replaced by
more broken cliffs above the path as it drops down from the southern slopes
of Vorderer Schwarzmooskogel to the pass of Hochklapfsattel at the head of
the cirque behind the <a href="aausee.html">Altausseer See</a>.<p>
This path passes through an impressive 170m deep doline on its way to
Wildensee, following roughly the line of the major fault which separates the
limestone block of our area 1623 from the adjacent 1624 area to the SE. The
Wildensee hutte and Youth Hostel are in a relatively level area of mainly
bare karren, separated from the bare rounded ridge of Augst-Eck by steeper
wooded slopes. Although there is no path here, the map shows a ski route
ascending from the huts to the Augst-Eck and Grie&szlig; kogel ridge,
from where it would be possible to return to the <a href="handbook/tollrd.html">Toll
road</a> across the <a href="plateau.html">plateau</a>.<p>
Almost all the known caves of the area lie east of the Vorderer
Schwarzmooskogel, at the top break of slope of the broken craggy zone.
Explored in the 1950s, they are possibly most easily approached from the col
by <a href="/cave/161">Kaninchenh&ouml;hle</a>. Other caves lie
very close to the Wildensee Alm, as there appears to have been very little
exploratory effort anywhere in the area.
