<h1>Far plateau to <span lang="de-at">Grie&szlig; Kogel</span> and
<span lang="de-at">Augst-Eck</span></h1>

<p>Beyond the comparatively accessible area of plateau just over the
<span lang="de-at">Schwarzmoossattel</span>  lies a vast
area of limestone karren and dwarf spruce. Exploration is deterred by the
lack of paths, almost complete absence of water supplies and possible places
to camp and just general inaccessibility. This is the main area of CUCC exploration since 2000.</p>

<p>
An area right at the far edge of the 1623
area, described as "SE face of <span lang="de-at">Kleines Augst-Eck",</span>
may prove to mean the SE face of <span lang="de-at">Nieder Augst-Eck,</span>
which could be included in the
<a href="wilden.html"><span lang="de-at">Schwarzmooskogel</span> to
<span lang="de-at">Wildensee</span></a> area, but this is sufficently
uncertain that we treat it here. </p>

<p>Lancaster University Speleological Society held two expeditions (in 1987
and 1988) into an area on the very northern edge of 1623, and most caves they
found were in the adjoining 1626 area. The approach to this area around
<span lang="de-at">Ro&szlig;kogel</span> was from the
<span lang="de-at">Wildenseeh&uuml;tte,</span> after a long approach on foot
from <span lang="de-at">Grundlsee.</span> LUSS produced good printed reports
for each of their trips, and details are included of those finds which appear
to be south of the rather ill-defined 1623/1626 "border".</p>

<p>The University of Bristol Speleological Society also held two small
expeditions (in 1989 and 1990) into an area near the LUSS one. Unlike LUSS,
they did not contact any member of CUCC (or, as far as we are aware, any of
the Austrian cavers) for information, nor had we been able to obtain many
details of their finds. However, Dan Harries sent a copy of their report on
BS17 Organh&ouml;hle, whose description is included here and which CUCC revisted in 2017.</p>

<p>The list of caves below was up to date in about 1999.
