76 Plateau schacht CUCC 90/6 1/S -

Altitude: 1665m (by altimeter set 1610 at Bergrestaurant)
Location: At foot of SE-facing scar, just NE of a much more obvious (but unmarked) NW-SE rift with snow. Below this scar is a pavement formed in a shelly band of limestone, which dips c 10-15° on a strike of 135-315°. Following the pavement down and dropping down one scar leads to 175.
Bearings: Hinterer Schwarzmooskogel 102½ (1995, to left hand peak; 1990/91 100 or 104°?), rightmost (of three) peak of Vorderer Schwarzmooskogel 168½° (1990/91: 167 or 169°), Bräuning Nase 195° (1995, 1990:193°), Bräuning Zinken 220½ (1995, 1990/91 220 or 214°), Top Camp 192° (1991?)

Marking: Originally marked "CUCC 90/6" in red, changed to "176" in 1991, on scar above cave, rather small. An Austrian metal tag bolted to entrance next to the number in 1995.
