<p><b>Location:</b> E 36269.0, N (52)82403.4, H 1780.6
<br>Probably somewhat uphill from 146, ie. NW of Vd. Schwarzmooskogel.<br>
&quot;3m entry pitch in rift going into bluff wall on camp 2 side of Vord.
Schwarzmooskogel on cairned path.&quot; (<a href="../tcamps.htm#vd1camp">Camp
2</a> refers to the 1988/89 camp up near the col between Vord. and Hint.
Schwarzmooskogel.)
<p>Number originally allocated to a cave which was not marked with a number,
and which was not relocated until 1988. Interestingly, the Austrians had this
as 2/T +, at 1700m, NW of Vorderer Schwarzmooskogel, and think CUCC explored
it to 60m long and 10m deep in 1984. This suggests a CUCC documentation
failure and probably a relocation failure, as the cave explored in 1988 was
very different...
<p>Horizontal walking entrance leads south to a descending passage and
junction. Down to right is a shorter but smaller route to the lower cave,
while ahead leads past a small choked passage on the right to the head of a
pitch. Across the pitch a smaller passage continues to a blind pitch where a
draught enters from the floor, and an even smaller continuing passage which
ends too small, also draughting.
<p>Down the main pitch, in a rift, is 10m to a boulder pile in a chamber
where the shorter route reenters, and a passage continues back north towards
the entrance. South is a rift ending too tight. The main way soon leads to a
pitch of 10m with a large ledge halfway. A short passage intersects a
cross-rift before becoming too small (with a draught), but down the rift
drops c15m to a choke at about -45m.
<p><b>Exploration:</b> CUCC 1988
<br><b>Survey:</b> Elevation and plan, 1988, unpublished ? Claims to be
grade 5b, but comment in 1988 logbook suggests that compass may have been
seriously deviated by use of a torch to illuminate it. Drawn up survey has
only one scale bar, though clearly plan and elevation are not to the
same scale. Surface survey to top of Vd. Schwarzmooskogel, 1994<br>
Re-explored and surveyed in 1999 - see
