Contouring around to the south of the depression, following the bedding, LA25 to 27 are close together.<br> LA27 is approximately 100m E of <a href="la26.htm">LA26</a>, down the snow slope and around to the foot of a small cliff. <p>A small tube at the foot of the cliff leads as a low crawl for about 30m to a choke. A slight draught emerges from a 10cm wide rift. <p><b>Exploration:</b> LUSS 1987 <p><b>Acknowledgement:</b>The above description is taken from the LUSS <a href="../others/luss/index.htm">report</a> on the 1987 expedition. <hr> <!-- LINKS --> <img alt=">" src="../../icons/lists/0.png"> <a href="index.htm#la27">Far plateau area</a> index and description<br> <img alt=">" src="../../icons/lists/0.png"> <a href="../indxal.htm">Full Index</a><br> <img alt=">" src="../../icons/lists/0.png"> <a href="../areas.htm">1623 Area/Subarea description</a><br> <img alt=">" src="../../icons/lists/0.png"> <a href="../1626/index.htm">Adjacent area 1626</a><br> <img alt=">" src="../../icons/lists/0.png"> <a href="../index.htm">Back to Expedition Intro page</a><br> <img alt=">" src="../../icons/lists/0.png"> <a href="../../index.htm">Back to CUCC Home page</a> </body> </html>
