It is just below a cliff, which is almost the highest bit of cliff in the vicinity. The entrance is almost on the (E-W) axis on the ridge and the cliff faces SE. The number is easily missed. <p><center><a href="others/l/174.htm"><img alt="Photo of entrance" src="others/t/174.jpg" width=124 height=185></a></center> <p><b>Marking</b>: Originally marked "CUCC 90/4" in red, changed to "174" in 1991.
