This proved impossible to find in 1995 from these bearings which bring one to a point c 200m NNE of 1623/104 (easily spotted by the prominent split boulder above its entrance). The vicinity is hard to search owing to an excess of dwarf pine scrub and small cliffs.

It is marked by a red-painted omega in the path, just where the junction path leading to The Nipple and the German bivouac leaves the main path, at which point there is also a laser-rangefound fixed point.

Numbered '88' in a fit of optimism while the explorer was getting changed to investigate this impressively draughting hole, it proved in fact to be only 1.2 metres deep and too tight. It appears to be above the inlet below pitch 1 in cave 87, and has been renumbered 87b, since the Austrians have allocated number 88 to Lärchenhöhle.

However, Loser is not visible from this area and it is most likely that this bearing is to Sommersitz, which looks rather similar from this direction.) Not relocated in search in 1990.

B5CUCC 1976/B5+NoneNoneNoneLost"Right on the col - the scar to the west has large holes immediately below it." A scar to the west with large holes below it exactly describes Schachtgruppe 36 as seen from B4. B5 was not relocated in a search in 1990, nor so far in 1995. However, the Austrians thought B5 was the same as Kat. 35, whose description is nothing similar, but 35 is in the same doline as Kat. 74, which does sound exactly like B5, so we can probably assume that it is the same place.
