Wall on south side is 1.5m higher than rest of surface. Freeclimb descent of 6m to scree/boulder floor usually with snow plug. At eastern end of the south wall, a horizontal passage leads 7.5m on 185° to the lip of a second pitch. This is 10m leading to a big rift. Ahead over boulders and ice an 8m pitch descends through (sic) spectacular ice stalactites. Way on is effectively blocked by ice but could well connect with a major shaft nearby (<a href="../189.htm">1623/189</a>), not descended in 1976 on account of the condition of the ice. The small alternative hole back in the rift is blocked by ice at -6m.</p><p>In 1993 the cave was "extremely cold and some ice formations".</underground_description> <equipment></equipment> <references></references> <survey></survey> <kataster_status></kataster_status> <underground_centre_line></underground_centre_line> <notes>B9 now known to be same as 190</notes> <length></length> <depth>c 25m</depth> <extent></extent> <survex_file></survex_file> <description_file></description_file> <url>1623/190/190.html</url> </cave> </body> </html>
