The system is mainly horizontal, though tackle is needed to explore it fully, and crampons are necessary in parts, because of the substantial quantities of ice in the cave.

From seven partly shaft-like entrance points, a huge, flat-floored level with impressive ice formations can be approached. The <b>Schneevulkanhalle</b> at the northern end is the biggest ice-bearing chamber in middle Europe.</p><p>Four entrances lead into the central area. A 40m shaft from the Top Entrance '<b>Oberen Eingang</b>' breaks into the ice-decorated '<b>Altausseer Halle</b>'. To the west from here via a 25m ramp accessing '<b>Schneehalle</b>' leads both to entrance 2 and the connecting gallery from the ice-bearing '<b>Thalhammerhalle</b>', that can be entered from entrances 3 and 4 too. South of the Schnee and Altausseer Halles, the '<b>Teufelberger Halle</b>' connects, the bottom of which contains an ice lake. A wide passage with side shafts goes southsouthwest to '<b>Hans-Pfandl-Halle</b>'. The east connected room, also reached by a 23m high chimney (entrance 7), is divided into two by a high block barrier. The '<b>Flusstunnel</b>' south from here ends blocked.</p><p>From the Altausseer Halle, a lofty passage with ice figures heads off NNE. The continuation is the '<b>Halle des Schiefen Turms</b>', where the '<b>Wahnsinnsch&auml;chte</b>' branches off on the west. It was thought that this was blocked by ice. However, over a wall of ice one reaches the 130 by 75 by 50 m Schneevulkanhalle, on the eastern wall of which rises a steep snowslope flowing from the '<b>K&ouml;nigsschachts</b>' (entrance 6). The chamber with its very impressive ice formations can also be reached via the '<b>Brennerbeselschluf</b>' (entrance 5). At its northern end a climb reveals the easterly-running '<b>Kalten Gang</b>' and the parallel '<b>Spinnenfriedhof</b>'.</p><h4><a name=""svh"">Schneevulkanhalle</a> trip:</h4><p>The principal objective of both pushing and tourist trips is the huge ice chamber of Schneevulkanhalle, which requires some serious ice work to reach from the older entrances in the middle of the system. Instead, follow the description to the ""new"" entrance (Brennerbeselschluf, 40e), with a somewhat limited area to get changed, perched between the icy blast from the cave and whatever the Austrian weather is offering.</p><p>The entrance is not walk-in, and low crawling in the face of the icy draught starts at once. A small descending tube (somewhat muddy - irritating in crampons!) leads in about 20m to a short climb down into larger (walking/stooping) passage 'Ger&ouml;llgang. This goes downhill to a scramble up. This was totally ice-covered in 1997 and 1998, but not 1999 or 2000 and has a <a href=""../../fixaid.htm#icy"">fixed rope</a> (VfHO-installed), which may be buried in ice at somewhat critical points - a certain amount of care is needed if chipping it out with an ice-axe and gloves really are needed!</p><p>Partway up this slope is a space on the left [<a href=""../../smkridge/40/qm.htm#C000040-05"" name=""qC000040-05"">C0000-40-05</a> A], including a pitch in the floor. At the far end of this space, a short crawl and a grovel down through boulders where a stream comes in from above both choke. The pitch is a c3, p20, p30 - the last part being very wet in early summer. Leading to <a href=""#schotterland"">Schotterland</a>.</p><p>Survey data also suggests a passage off to the right of the iceslope for 20m or so.</p><p>Above the scramble up is a short traverse, also rather interesting when covered in hard ice (and also protected by a fixed rope which had to be dug out in 1998). A steeply ascending passage to the L holds a quantity of particularly scrofulous rope (presumably a previous fixed rope). This can be climbed ~10m until it gets too vertical. It draughts. Beyond the ice is a steep snow/ice slope down into the huge Schneevulkanhalle. It is <b>strongly</b> recommended to equip this with a properly rigged SRT rope rather than anything less - the cave has seen a number of accidents, some <b>fatal</b>. Although the slope looks like soft snow, it is a layer of coarsely crystalline hard n&eacute;v&eacute; over solid ice. In parts it is almost impossible to kick steps into, whilst in others it offers only minimal purchase for crampon points. Conditions no doubt vary with the season as well as with position on the slope and the year. Tackle required: 50m rope, crampons. There is one bolt at the top, for a traverse line to two bolts off to the R in the roof where the snow-slope proper starts.  Sometimes the traverse area is full of snow and an ice-screw or ice-axe rebelay/deviation (club first ? in 1989) may be needed.  A deviation (from rock) at the head of the steep section was found adequate in 1998.</p><div class=""centre""><img alt=""plan - 12k gif"" width=""600"" height=""540"" src=""i/40svh.png"" /></div><p>The 50m K&ouml;nigschacht (40f) entrance is the source of the snow slope and comes in here. It is often full of snow but was open in 1999 and so was surveyed (by ARGE).</p><p>At the bottom is the main chamber from which the pitch does indeed look like a snow-covered volcanic cone. Most of the floor area is ice-covered and only a slight slope is necessary to make crampons vital here. Most of the chamber is filled with ice formations up to 15m high (end of season). Those with two ice-tools can climb almost anything in the chamber, though the formations are no doubt rather more spectacular and fragile in spring or early summer.

From seven partly shaft-like entrance points, a huge, flat-floored level with impressive ice formations can be approached. The <b>Schneevulkanhalle</b> at the northern end is the biggest ice-bearing chamber in middle Europe.</p><p>Four entrances lead into the central area. A 40m shaft from the Top Entrance '<b>Oberen Eingang</b>' breaks into the ice-decorated '<b>Altausseer Halle</b>'. To the west from here via a 25m ramp accessing '<b>Schneehalle</b>' leads both to entrance 2 and the connecting gallery from the ice-bearing '<b>Thalhammerhalle</b>', that can be entered from entrances 3 and 4 too. South of the Schnee and Altausseer Halles, the '<b>Teufelberger Halle</b>' connects, the bottom of which contains an ice lake. A wide passage with side shafts goes southsouthwest to '<b>Hans-Pfandl-Halle</b>'. The east connected room, also reached by a 23m high chimney (entrance 7), is divided into two by a high block barrier. The '<b>Flusstunnel</b>' south from here ends blocked.</p><p>From the Altausseer Halle, a lofty passage with ice figures heads off NNE. The continuation is the '<b>Halle des Schiefen Turms</b>', where the '<b>Wahnsinnsch&auml;chte</b>' branches off on the west. It was thought that this was blocked by ice. However, over a wall of ice one reaches the 130 by 75 by 50 m Schneevulkanhalle, on the eastern wall of which rises a steep snowslope flowing from the '<b>K&ouml;nigsschachts</b>' (entrance 6). The chamber with its very impressive ice formations can also be reached via the '<b>Brennerbeselschluf</b>' (entrance 5). At its northern end a climb reveals the easterly-running '<b>Kalten Gang</b>' and the parallel '<b>Spinnenfriedhof</b>'.</p><h4><a name=""svh"">Schneevulkanhalle</a> trip:</h4><p>The principal objective of both pushing and tourist trips is the huge ice chamber of Schneevulkanhalle, which requires some serious ice work to reach from the older entrances in the middle of the system. Instead, follow the description to the ""new"" entrance (Brennerbeselschluf, 40e), with a somewhat limited area to get changed, perched between the icy blast from the cave and whatever the Austrian weather is offering.</p><p>The entrance is not walk-in, and low crawling in the face of the icy draught starts at once. A small descending tube (somewhat muddy - irritating in crampons!) leads in about 20m to a short climb down into larger (walking/stooping) passage 'Ger&ouml;llgang.

This was totally ice-covered in 1997 and 1998, but not 1999 or 2000 and has a <a href=""../../fixaid.htm#icy"">fixed rope</a> (VfHO-installed), which may be buried in ice at somewhat critical points - a certain amount of care is needed if chipping it out with an ice-axe and gloves really are needed!</p><p>Partway up this slope is a space on the left [<a href=""../../smkridge/40/qm.htm#C000040-05"" name=""qC000040-05"">C0000-40-05</a> A], including a pitch in the floor. At the far end of this space, a short crawl and a grovel down through boulders where a stream comes in from above both choke. The pitch is a c3, p20, p30 - the last part being very wet in early summer. Leading to <a href=""#schotterland"">Schotterland</a>.</p><p>Survey data also suggests a passage off to the right of the iceslope for 20m or so.</p><p>Above the scramble up is a short traverse, also rather interesting when covered in hard ice (and also protected by a fixed rope which had to be dug out in 1998). A steeply ascending passage to the L holds a quantity of particularly scrofulous rope (presumably a previous fixed rope). This can be climbed ~10m until it gets too vertical. It draughts. Beyond the ice is a steep snow/ice slope down into the huge Schneevulkanhalle. It is <b>strongly</b> recommended to equip this with a properly rigged SRT rope rather than anything less - the cave has seen a number of accidents, some <b>fatal</b>. Although the slope looks like soft snow, it is a layer of coarsely crystalline hard n&eacute;v&eacute; over solid ice. In parts it is almost impossible to kick steps into, whilst in others it offers only minimal purchase for crampon points. Conditions no doubt vary with the season as well as with position on the slope and the year. Tackle required: 50m rope, crampons. There is one bolt at the top, for a traverse line to two bolts off to the R in the roof where the snow-slope proper starts.  Sometimes the traverse area is full of snow and an ice-screw or ice-axe rebelay/deviation (club first ? in 1989) may be needed.  A deviation (from rock) at the head of the steep section was found adequate in 1998.</p><div class=""centre""><img alt=""plan - 12k gif"" width=""600"" height=""540"" src=""i/40svh.png"" /></div><p>The 50m K&ouml;nigschacht (40f) entrance is the source of the snow slope and comes in here.

Most of the floor area is ice-covered and only a slight slope is necessary to make crampons vital here. Most of the chamber is filled with ice formations up to 15m high (end of season). Those with two ice-tools can climb almost anything in the chamber, though the formations are no doubt rather more spectacular and fragile in spring or early summer. Formation-ice can also shatter very easily as melting occurs between component crystals later in the season, so it is probably safer for climbers to stick to hard n&eacute;v&eacute;.

At the foot of the chamber are two large holes of around 5m depth, one in each corner. One of these holes has a spit above it, suggesting it was descended in 1983/4, however no descent was made of either hole in 1997.

A 130m rope was initially used here, though some spare was later cut off. Beware of apparently sound footholds here as they have a habit of falling off down the next 70m or so of the pitch series! A rebelay is required just below the take-off point on the boulder to avoid rubbing the edge of the block on the way up. This rebelay is particularly awkward on the way up since the rope tends to pull into the crack between wall and boulder. The shaft continues down more or less vertically for a further 3 rebelays (50m) until the first substantial ledge is reached. (A deviation is required below the 3rd rebelay from the pitch head to avoid an otherwise serious rub just below the rebelay bolt).</p><div class=""centre""><a href=""l/jh97-9.htm""><img alt=""Photo - 55k"" src=""t/jh97-9.jpg"" width=""225"" height=""150"" /></a><a href=""l/jh9711.htm""><img alt=""Photo - 60k"" src=""t/jh9711.jpg"" width=""150"" height=""225"" /></a></div><p>From this ledge, a further pitch descends, rigged from two bolts on the left hand wall with an immediate deviation off the right hand wall. Traversing ahead over the pitch, it appears that there is a parallel shaft visible through an eyehole in the left hand wall. It is believed that this is the shaft described as being accessed by a ""desperate step across"" which was descended in 1984 and found to reconnect to the wet route lower down.</p><p>Descending from the ledge, a further substantial ledge is reached after c8m. On the way up it is advisable to cower under the overhanging wall of this ledge to avoid exposing yourself to rocks dislodged by people on the pitch above - the pitch head is especially loose.</p><p><i><a name=""id3rdp"">Third Pitch</a></i></p><p>From the ledge an awkward take-off to an almost immediate rebelay leads to a connection with a wet shaft - the main source of water below this point. The hang is fortunately almost dry, aided by a very wide rebelay about 12m below the ledge. A further 15m hang reaches another large ledge where water continues through a large slot in the floor at the foot of the pitch. It is at this point that the two routes diverge into <a href=""#wetdream"">Wet Dreams</a> (the way explored in 1983/4) and the <b>Eyehole Route</b>.</p><h4><a name=""eyehole"">Eyehole</a> Route (<a href=""../../years/1997/index.htm"">1997</a>)</h4><p>The Eyehole Route is to-date the main route in 136, leading eventually to the 1997 connection with the <a href=""fbl136.htm"">Forbidden Land</a> in 161, and the 2&frac12;km <a href=""chile.htm"">Chile</a> series, found in 1999.</p><p>The eyehole is reached by means of a traverse over the slot in the floor (through which the water disappears) and is the obvious large hole on the right. A short horizontal rift, with a steeply-inclined hole in the floor, connects to the head of the fourth pitch series. This pitch series is about 30m of dry shaft, broken by three ledges and landing on a much larger ledge with a couple of large boulders jammed in the exit rift. A 54m rope was sufficient in 1997. From the foot of the fourth pitch, the head of the fifth is only a few metres away over the jammed boulders.</p><p><a name=""pitch4"">The head of</a> the fifth pitch does an extremely good job of hiding the enormous cavern into which it breaks some 10m below. Do not be mistaken into believing that the floor, as it appears, is only 5m below your feet, nor that your light will be even remotely adequate for ensuring maximum exposure on the multiple hanging rebelays below. The pitch starts with a large Y-hang across the rift at the pitch head.</p><div class=""centre""><a href=""l/jh9715.htm""> <img alt=""Photo - 21k"" src=""t/jh9715.jpg"" width=""150"" height=""225"" /></a></div><p><a name=""over5"">An airy</a> traverse around the corner to the left (<a href=""../../fixaid.htm#over5"">rigged rope</a>) leads eventually to the <a href=""#footlight"">Footlights Traverse</a>. (The eyehole immediately opposite the pitch head connects with the climb around to the left).</p><p>Below the Y-hang is a large, mud-covered outcrop of rock, over which you must traverse before proceeding further to a very wide deviation, hated by those with short legs, just below the muddy ""floor"". A further 5m descent leads to a smallish ledge with another rock outcrop to cross to a hanging rebelay on the left-hand wall. This point is around 60m above the floor of the chamber and is where the <a href=""#thegods"">Gods' Traverse</a> begins. A 35m rope was sufficient to reach this point in 1997.</p><p><a name=""theatre"">Continuing</a> straight down from the rebelay, first a parallel shaft is reached and the wall of the chamber becomes convex, requiring another hanging rebelay 21m below the last. A further 24m hang drops to a boulder floor at the top of a huge chamber - <b>The Theatre</b>. The landing point for the main route into the Theatre is at the top of the steeply inclined floor.</p><div class=""centre""><a href=""l/jh9719.htm""><img alt=""Photo - 38k"" src=""t/jh9719.jpg"" width=""150"" height=""200"" /></a></div><p><a name=""orchestral"">Standing</a> at this point, looking down the slope of the floor, an opening at the bottom of the chamber of the left-hand wall leads to the <b>Orchestral Pit</b>. From the foot of the chamber up a short (c 8m) climb over mud and boulders and then up another (c 8m) climb on steep rock, leads to a small opening. (The rope has been left <a href=""../../fixaid.htm#opit"">permanently rigged</a> on this climb). On the right hand wall at the foot of the chamber is a boulder choke through which it is possible to climb down around 10m. No recommendable leads were found here. Immediately behind the landing point and around 30m higher up the wall is the connection to the <a href=""fbl136.htm"">Forbidden Land</a> (161) which must be reached via the God's Traverse.</p><p><a name=""exitsl"">Proceeding</a> up the 16m climb from the floor of the Theatre, a narrow opening leads to a precarious climb down the other side (c.5m) over the top of a large wedged boulder in a rift chamber, <b>Exit Stage Left</b>. There is an aven in the roof of this chamber, which can be descended as a pitch (the 30m continuation of Plughole Pitch) from the end of the <a href=""#footlight"">Footlights Traverse</a>. A second aven is reached by a short (c 3m) climb up opposite the entry climb. A small window (too small for human access) in the left hand wall of the chamber connects to the undescended pitch accessible from the <a href=""#plughole"">rock bridge</a> 18m down Plughole pitch, 26m above. Rocks can also be thrown in through a small gap in the boulder floor. This pitch continues below this level.</p><p>In the Orchestral Pit, a number of wet shafts connect from the ceiling in addition to a number of dry avens. The dry avens nearest to the Forbidden Land have been connected to an eyehole on the God's Traverse around 15m above the connection to <a href=""fbl136.htm#ealgor"">Elin Algor</a>. The floor of the Orchestral Pit has a number of pools and also a considerable amount of brown powdery mud, similar to that found in the horizontal areas of Kaninchenh&ouml;hle such as <a href=""offffr.htm#mmudpie"">Mississippi Mud Pie</a>, <a href=""triasp.htm#triasp"">Triassic Park</a> etc. , of which the majority of 136 is devoid. No leads were found in the Orchestral Pit.</p><h4><a name=""thegods"">The Gods'</a> Traverse (<a href=""../../years/1997/index.htm"">1997</a>)</h4><p>The earlier (and lower) of two impressive traverse routes off the fifth pitch, The Gods' Traverse heads NE towards Kaninchenh&ouml;hle, to which it eventually connects.</p><div class=""onleft""><a href=""l/godst.htm""><img alt=""Photo - 48k jpeg"" width=""150"" height=""200"" src=""t/godst.jpg"" /></a></div><p>From the hanging rebelay 10m below the head of the 5th pitch (on Eyehole Route), a short (4m) descent with a swing leads to a small muddy sloping ledge, with precipitous drop. A bolt in the middle of the traverse ""protects"" a caver who teeters around the ledge and up a short (c.2m) climb over a corner bulge onto the main face of the traverse. This roughly horizontal section is about 12m in length across a slab of limestone inclined at 70 - 80 &deg;. Should your lighting equipment allow, you will be able to admire the enormous vertical rock-face which forms the opposite wall of the Theatre and the precipitous drop to the floor 40+ metres below. Hand holds (barring the rope) are non-existent on the second half of the traverse and most foot ledges were of the disposable type (single use only), now long gone. At the far end of the traverse a hanging rebelay just over the edge of the wall leads, with a wide swing, to a large eyehole on the opposite wall. A short (15m) pitch against the wall on the outside of the hole leads to a large muddy sloping ledge at the back of which is a hole into narrow traversy passage. This is the final impressive overlook reached in <a href=""fbl136.htm#ealgor"">Elin Algor</a> from the Forbidden Land in Kaninchenh&ouml;hle in 1996. The whole of the pitch - traverse - pitch to this point was <a href=""../../fixaid.htm#gods"">left rigged</a>.</p><p>Back through the eyehole, a couple of pitches lead eventually to the Orchestral Pit.</p><h4 style=""clear: both""><a name=""footlight"">Fifth pitch and Footlights</a> Traverses (<a href=""../../years/1997/index.htm"">1997</a>)</h4><p>The later traverse route off the fifth pitch (starting at the pitch head, some 10m higher than the Gods'). This heads generally SW, and is in two sections, split by a 16m pitch. The lower section is strictly the Footlights traverse, but the name has been applied to the whole route, causing some confusion.</p><p>A short, unobvious  (<a href=""../../fixaid.htm#over5"">roped</a>) traverse, <b>Service Duct</b>, starts from the left hand side of the Y hang at the head of the fifth pitch. It goes left round the corner into a window, then climbs up 3m above a deep hole to a lip into a chamber with a large hole in the steeply sloping floor that drops down near the start of <a href=""#thegods"">Traverse of the Gods</a>. Traversing to the right of this chamber, past an eyehole with a view back to the Y hang, a pitch (<b>Ventilation Shaft</b> p.16, 1 bolt rebelay, -5m) descends to the  <b>Box</b>, a platform with a fine view to the left across the Theatre to the Gods' Traverse. Looking out and to the right from the Box is the start of <b>Footlights Traverse</b>.</p><p><a name=""foottrav"">This airy,</a> diagonal, section around and down the south-western corner of the Theatre, 30m off the floor was <a href=""../../fixaid.htm#footl"">left rigged</a> after the 1997 expedition, but in 1999 was deemed easy enough to rig afresh on each expedition, so the rope was taken off. Two bolt rebelays reach a Y hang, and descending from this a window can be reached by an entertaining pendulum to reach a rift in the wall. This window enters a choss-filled passage whose boulder floor is apparently suspended above a void (traverse line recommended). An old phreatic level was hypothesised to exist at a similar height to the connection with Elin Algor, and this seems to correspond roughly to that level, although at this point the morphology is a tall rift, passable at various levels, with many windows, climbs and pitches, difficult to explore exhaustively.</p><p><a name=""plughole"">The passage</a> leads, after a 3m climb up and a 2m climb down, to a narrow slot opening out into the spacious <b>Plughole pitch</b> below, which drops 18m to a rock bridge.</p><p>At the rock bridge the single shaft splits into three. An inlet enters from an aven and goes down an undescended clean-washed shaft [99-xx A]. This descends about 8m to a ledge where a slot drops at least 30m, past the choked floor at the bottom of the Footlights pitch (determined by rocks thrown in from two points below). This apparently does not connect (at least directly) with the Orchestral Pit - rocks were not audible from there. The second of the shafts is more like a 3m blind pit, of little interest.</p><p>The third, and biggest, of the dry shafts is a further drop of 30 m (bolt, tape deviation at -10m) and lands on the floor of <a href=""#exitsl"">Exit Stage Left</a> (originally reached by the 16m climb up from the Theatre).</p><p>Across the rock bridge, over a few boulders and through a smallish slot, is a short 5m pitch. This is the way on to <a href=""chile.htm"">Chile</a>, 1999's major find.</p><h4><a name=""wetdream"">Wet Dreams</a> (1983/4)</h4><p>Wet Dreams is the original route, explored first in 1983/4, but named in 1997 in memory of the anticipated connection with 161 by this route. In fact no such connection has yet been found, but the shaft series has not yet been bottomed and so it's still a possibility.</p><p>Continuing from the foot of the <a href=""#id3rdp"">third pitch</a> and crossing the traverse to the point where the Eyehole Route diverges, a dry hang is possible to the bottom of the rift down which the water disappears. At the foot of this 15m pitch is a narrow rift, leading quickly to a further 12m pitch followed by another narrow rift to another pitch.</p><p><a name=""pfantasy"">Around</a> the head of this pitch, <b>Phreatic Fantasy</b> - so called because of the anticipated large sloping ramps expected from a previous cave description - are a number of small, clean and fairly uninteresting roof tubes, probably phreatic in origin. The shaft at this point becomes roughly vertical and descends in a number of sections a further surveyed 35m, becoming increasingly wet towards the bottom. From the surveyed limit a further pitch of around 30m (estimated) can be seen descending immediately below.</p><p><i>1983 rigging</i></p><p>The split between Eyehole and Wet Dreams is about three quarters of the way down what the 1983 description had as a broken shaft of c 100m. This was in sections of 14m vertical, 24m sloping, 13m vertical to a ledge. Here a desperate step across (worse on exit) attained a parallel shaft which apparently connected back lower down. The main way dropped 9m sloping, 29m vertical, to a 9m slope and a final 3m vertical to what is assumed to have been the Phreatic Fantasy level -  though the pitch lengths (mainly deduced from survey data) don't correspond well with the 1997 experience and this may be below the next pitch. 1983 figures put the next pitch as 17m sloping, then 15m vertical to a bolt at -194m, which may be a similar point to that reached on this route in 1997, or not quite as deep.</p><p><i>1984 series</i></p><p>A further drop is 5m to ""a very bad bolt"" and either 15m total, or a further 15m from the bolt, to a spray lashed ledge with only one small alcove in which to cower and brew up. A rift in the floor leads 6m to a rebelay and a final 20-25m pitch into a chamber with two ways off. One was very tight to an aven and small drop which stones indicate ends blind in mud floor after c10m. The main way was a squeeze past a very large boulder, down a 10m pitch to a stream which flows into the classic too-narrow draughting rift. Logbook describes this as -260m, which fits with the non-existence of a 30m ""virtual"" pitch which is believed to be the result of an ambiguity elsewhere in the 1984 log book.",,,,,"In dataset","</p><ul><li>1983 Surface survey from Vord.

Through the entrance is a large chamber with a 4m � 8m crater in it. A 3m climb down to the bottom gives access to a 3m climb back up to the right, leading into the cave and a crawl at the lowest point of the boulders leading into a choked bit of cave with small solutional stuff in the roof. It is also possible to traverse around the left edge of the crater to reach a triangular crawl which goes for about 10m before it gets too tight.</p><p>The entire floor of this cave consists of small rocks and boulders. There is no solid rock anywhere horizontal, except halfway down the pitch.</p><p>After climbing out of the hole there is another 5m deep choked hole beyond. Traverses round to both the left and right are possible, although a little care is required due to the low roof and loose floor.</p><p>To the right, rubble coming out of the bottom of a choked shaft almost blocks the passage but a crawl through to the left remains, with a strong wind blasting through the confined space. Beyond this constriction the draught is lost. The roof remains low on the other side, although it is possible to stand up off to the left where there is a 4m climb up to what looks like a way on but is actually blind. Moving around the boulder pile to the right leads to a big passage. There are a few large boulders 10m to the right with a 4m climb down between them leading to a tight choked rift. This was also dug into from the top passage by the extremely zealous original explorers! There is an alcove in front and a rubble slope up to the right. Round the corner to the right is another shaft-bottom rubble pile and a hole disappearing into the roof. At the top of the slope to the left is a 4m climb up through and around big wedged boulders to reach an impressive chamber 7m � 9m and 12m high. There is a possible climb up into an aven in the corner which probably doesn't go and has a couple of moves at the top which need protecting.</p><p>Back at the fork near the entrance, turning left and thrutching over a couple of rocks (another windy spot) leads to the head of a 17m pitch broken by a ledge 8m down. There is a bolt for a ladder hang on this ledge. Going off to the left allows a safe traverse past the pitch continuation to the bottom of a 6m high rift with some ice in it, slowly narrowing as it goes up.</p><p>At the foot of the pitch is what looks like an ancient phreatic remnant. It is about 40m long and 6m wide, and mostly full of rocks. To the left it is blocked at the end by the rubble coming out of the bottom of a big shaft. It is possible to work round the foot of this for about 3m to the left and 10m to the right.</p><p>Going the other way down the passage reveals a large snow column by the left hand wall. It is possible to climb up between the column and its containing shaft, presumably all the way to the surface, but no-one has managed it yet. Beyond this column the roof gets lower, apart from a couple of solutional avens and eventually a small shaft-bottom rock pile and a couple of small inlet tubes mark the end of the cave.",,,,,"In dataset","1990 plan Cambridge Underground 1991</p><p><img alt=""survey - 16k gif"" width=""649"" height=""505"" src=""others/162.png"" />","caves/162/162.svx","156-159m","22 m (survey) or 33 m (text)",,,,"The <a href=""../years/1988/log.htm"">1988 log book</a> refers to this cave as ""Adam's Hole (2)"".",,,"p162",,,"Surface survey","gps96.162 gps96bestfit.162","gps00.162",,,,,,"Vorderer Schwarzmooskogel, about halfway between <a href=""161/top.htm"">161</a> and <a href=""../noinfo/smkridge/40.htm"">Eish&ouml;hle</a>.

+<h1>CUCC Austria Expeditions: Surveying</h1>
+
+<p>Surveying is clearly a vital part of the work of any caving exploration
+party, and for a group visiting the same area over a period of decades,
+maintaining a comprehensive and accurate repository of surveys is of paramount
+importance. CUCC's Austrian expeditions enjoy a reputation for the quality of
+our surveying work, and many advances in surveying techniques and software have
+been pioneered by Expos over the years. In particular, the <a
+href="http://www.survex.com/">Survex</a> suite of software for processing and
+manipulating centreline data, now used on many of the world's major cave
+surveying projects, was originally devised by Olly Betts during an Expo in the
+early 90's, and its subsequent development has been largely a CUCC in-house
+effort. In recent years we have also been using Julian Todd's <a
+href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/tunnelx/">TunnelX</a> software for
+drawing up the final finished copy of surveys; this is one of the reasons why
+it is not uncommon for there to be five computers in use in the Potato Hut
+simultaneously!</p>
+
+<p>A large proportion of this archive of survey data is available on this website.</p>
+<h3>Centreline data</h3>
+<p>After much debate as to whether it was more appropriate to make the data
+available as raw Survex <tt>.svx</tt> files or as compiled <tt>.3d</tt> image
+files, we opted to compromise by offering both. Unfortunately we are not able
+to make the all the data publically available, as this includes a large amount
+of data gathered by <a href="others/index.htm">other groups</a>; those who know
+the Expo username and password can download the whole dataset <a
+href="noinfo/all.3d">here</a> for the 3d files and <a
+href="noinfo/all.tgz">here</a> for the Survex files.<sup><a id="fn1ref"
+href="#footnote1">1</a></sup></p>
+<p>At the moment survey data is being made available gradually on a
+cave-by-cave basis; the first batch of caves are those under active exploration
+by CUCC as of summer 2004, namely <a
+href="smkridge/204/204.html">Steinbr&uuml;ckenh&ouml;hle</a> (1623/204), <a
+href="smkridge/234/234.html">Hauchh&ouml;hle</a> (1623/234) and <a
+href="plateau/76.htm"> Eislufth&ouml;hle</a> (1623/76).</p>
+
+<h3>Drawn-up surveys</h3>
+
+<p>Final copies of surveys of various vintages are sprinkled throughout the
+site, linked from the description pages of the caves they correspond to. Of
+current interest are the plans of <a
+href="smkridge/204/204.html">Steinbr&uuml;ckenh&ouml;hle</a> and <a
+href="smkridge/234/234.html">Hauchh&ouml;hle</a> (the Eish&ouml;hle resurvey
+project has not yet produced any drawn-up copies).</p>
+
+<h3>Working area</h3>
+
+<p>Expo members should take particular note of the surveys working area, which
+contains scans of recent survey notes. If you have surveys to draw up, they
+will be listed in the <a href="surveys/surveytable.html">index</a>, with links
+to the survey notes and any other relevant files.</p> 
+
+
+<p><sup><a id="footnote1" href="#fn1ref">1</a></sup>As there are (at the last
+count) 563 separate files in the raw dataset, it is available for download as a
+tar archive compressed with GZIP; on Unix systems this can be decompressed with
+"tar -xzvf all.tgz". Windows users can read these files with <a
+href="http://www.winzip.org">WinZip</a> or an equivalent tool (such as the
+freeware <i>WinImp</i>).</p>
