Both lead down to a sandy 45 degree slope, with another choked up entrance on the right hand side.</entrance_description> <explorers>CUCC 2017</explorers> <map_description></map_description> <location_description>Head to Balkonhohle, but instead of descending the rope to the entrance ledge, continue up the slope until you reach a large plateau with a central valley and large flat depression. Head up the slope to the right of the large depression. 1623/277 is near the top of that slope, past numerous blind shafts.</location_description> <approach></approach> <underground_description>The entrance series continues down a narrow phreatic passage (also at 45 degrees) with a loose boulder floor. This continues for about 20m until a junction with two avens (one wet, one dry) and another choked 45 degree downslope. The phreatic passage continues downwards from survey station 8, becoming a long tube ramping down at 45 degrees with numerous offshoots and small avens. It ends at a 30m pitch that descends into a large breakdown chamber. The chamber is divided in two by a boulder pile below the aven. A crawl from one chamber widens into a loose passage which then chokes. Gear tape was found here in 2017, which means a potential link through to 2011-01?</underground_description> <photo></photo> <!-- marking options: P = Paint, P? = Paint (?), T = Tag, T? = Tag (?), R = Retagged, S = Spit, S? = Spit (?), U = Unmarked, ? = Unknown" --> <marking>T</marking> <marking_comment>Tagged "1623/277" in 2018<br /> (Replaces tag "2017-pw-01" placed in 2017)</marking_comment> <!-- findability options: ? = To be confirmed ..., S = Surveyed, L = Lost, R = Refindable" --> <findability>S</findability> <findability_description></findability_description> <alt>1935</alt> <northing>5283630</northing> <easting>412000</easting> <tag_station></tag_station> <exact_station></exact_station> <other_station></other_station> <other_description></other_description> <bearings></bearings> <url></url> </entrance> </body> </html>
