A short rope leads to the next step. A rift follows an acute angle under the entrance way, some metres back. This section is very narrow, and over the narrow section pours a showerbath. Now a second squeeze leads to a fine pitch which bends back under the previous section. Then it gets complicated (the language, not the cave). It sounds like a series of either roomy or narrow wet pitches. Exploration appears to cease at -60m because of water down the neck and in the suit. It isn't clear if the cave actually stops at this point. <p><b>Exploration:</b> Discovered by K Gaisberger and F Hütter in August 1973 (to -30m) Sektion Ausseerland, 1977 (Karl Gaisberger + Edith Bednarik) <hr> <!-- LINKS --> <img alt=">" src="../../../icons/lists/0.png"> <a href="../../kratzer/index.htm#73">Kratzer valley</a> index and description<br> <img alt=">" src="../../../icons/lists/0.png"> <a href="../../indxal.htm">Full Index</a> to caves<br> <img alt=">" src="../../../icons/lists/0.png"> <a href="../../areas.htm">Other areas</a> in 1623<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">CUCC Home page</a> </body> </html>
