Expo 2005: Surface work hitlist
This is essentially a QM list for surface work, combined with a
documentation to-do list, intended to record things that need exploring or
surveying outside our main target caves. This list is maintained by Dave, as
kataster administrator.
Stuff near 204
- Noted but undescended caves:
- 2002-X09, 2002-X09B, 2002-10, 2002-X11 to X18: Entrances noted and
GPSsed by Dunks in 2002, on a single long circular prospecting walk round the
back of the Nieder Augst-Eck. Most of these are untagged, and have been given
retrospective numbers (indicated by the X prefix).
- 2004-10: discovered by Becka and Nial, lying just north of
2004-11.
- 2004-13: near 161G and 161H. Almost certainly goes into Iceland if
it goes anywhere, but worth checking out.
- 2004-16 to 18: Martin + Frank's holes north of 204C. Need checking
out to see if they go anywhere; might yield a new 204 entrance!
- 2002-02 aka 234B: has a voice and light connection to an aven in
234, but would be worth descending to tie in the loop.
- Other leads:
- 239 (Rock'n'Roll höhle): Continuing passage at the other side of
Mersonified pitch-head, trending towards 204 (although not very deep); may
require a loony bolt traverse.
- Digs:
- 2000-08: Dig poised above Merry Fucking Christmas. If I can work out
a sensible and safe rig to get into it, then I might have ago at it with a
crowbar and a shovel.
- 2001-02 and 2001-03: relocate them and determine if they actually go
anywhere. 02 is not promisingly placed, but 03 is just above the Colonnade in
204.
- 2004-21: Dig out the mysterious passage going down to the right
(which is sometimes snow-choked but has never been descended). Danger of attack
by flying saucers.
- Surveying, tagging and documentation jobs:
- The Quarries (2002-07, 2002-08 and 2002-XX): revisit in consultation
with Frank and determine if they go anywhere, and if there is a link to
204.
- 204C: stabilise the choke if possible and drop a tape measure down
it.
- 161G + H: to be tagged with new numbers.
- 2002-01, 2003-02, 2003-03, 2003-05, 2003-09, 2003-10, 2004-11: to be
retagged with new kataster numbers when these have been allocated.
