|
||||
<p>11:00-18:00 up the hill.
|
||||
<p>Found p115x the main "train tunnel" hole. Did a 200+ averaging GPS reading on p115x, Windloch, and cave 88 on the Stoger Weg.
|
||||
<p>Carried safety gear from the entrance I found 4 days ago and stashed inside:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>3l water in 3x 2l bottles
|
||||
<li>2 karrimats
|
||||
<li>1 small bag muesli
|
||||
<li>12-man tent (inc. poles,pegs etc. [there is room to pitch this inside the entrance easily]
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
I also rigged a 2sq.m. poly sheet and black foldable bucket to collect water.
|
||||
<p>It took 2 trips and lots of bunde bashing to carry the stuff as I only had a small daysack.
|
||||
<p>Route to p115x in old logbooks has been destroyed by 35y of pine growth.
|
||||
<p>The new route is:
|
||||
<p style="margin-left: 50px;">
|
||||
go along Stoger Weg past Windloch (32) and further past the next cave (marked 88 in faded red paint) in LHS of path.
|
||||
Go [10m] further
|
||||
from there along Stoger Weg and leave path descending limestone karren down to right.
|
||||
Proceed back along foot of karren slope and push aside
|
||||
3-4 branches of bunde to reach a "path".<br><br>
|
||||
Follow along this until you can descend steeply to the left (a few more branches of bunde) to steep "rockery" scramble
|
||||
bank. Make your way with care down this and you should be able to see a truncated pine tree [4m high] on the
|
||||
other side of a small gully. (When seen from the other side, this pine tree has branches in the shape of a figure "4".) Descend and traverse round
|
||||
to the right and climb up to this pine tree across the gully.<br><br>
|
||||
Now follow "path" down and to the right across 2 areas of soil/grass/loose stones to eventually reach a big pine tree
|
||||
with a bend in the trunk at ground
|
||||
level and a small cairn on the bend in the trunk. Continue down right through bunde with a little climb until you can
|
||||
see a large dead twisted tree root across a gully. Descend and get to this via via lush grass and flowers on steep slope and loose soil.
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
At the twisted dead tree root there is an obvious route leading to the right. At this point you are only 13m from p115x but
|
||||
you can't see it as it faces S. and you are approaching from the N. 10m on you pass a large anthill and then 3m further and you're there.<br><br>
|
||||
You may see a water collection poly sheet a lot earlier but use this route to get to it. (I did it 3x today and lots of other routes are worse.)
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
[lots to type in here]
|
||||
|
||||
Oh yes, on first visit to <b>CUCC-PS01-2018</b> this morning I went in: climbing down a 30 degree straight tunnel.
|
||||
Roof is solid rock and floor is blocks
|
||||
and rocks [and relic vadose features]. I counted 1m steps coming out and it's >14m long.
|
||||
Continues deeper but I was in t-shirt and shorts. Slight cold outwards draft.
