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> <p><b>Explorers:</b> </p><ul><li>Discovered by K Gaisberger and F Hütter in August 1973 (to -30m)</li><li>Sektion Ausseerland, 1977 (Karl Gaisberger + Edith Bednarik)</li></ul><p></p> <!-- LINKS --> <hr /><ul> <li><a href="../../kratzer/index.html#id73">Kratzer valley area index and description</a></li> <li><a href="../../indxal.htm#id73">Full Index of 1623 Caves</a></li><li><a href="../../areas.htm">Other Areas</a></li> <li><a href="../../index.htm">Back to Expedition Intro page</a></li> </ul> <!-- /LINKS --> </body> </html>
