<h2>2022 Mission Statement</h2>
|
||
<h4>Caving targets 2022</h4>
|
||
<p>This year’s aims are to continue pushing leads from Balkonhöhle, Fischgesicht
|
||
and Homecoming. <br /><br />

|
||
|
||
<p><b>Balkonhöhle (264):</b> many promising leads at multiple levels, allowing for meaningful exploration to be done by cavers of varying abilities.
|
||
Medusa’s Maze is a particularly exciting lead taking the SMK system into an area not traditionally explored by this expedition. Additionally, the
|
||
system connects the previously explored Tunnocks system at convenient points to push leads remaining there, allowing us to explore unfinished
|
||
areas of Tunnocks without rigging the previous route, which was flood-prone.
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Fischgesicht (290):</b> The entrance was blocked by snow in 2019 and could not be excavated. Leads from 2018 are still yet to be explored including a
|
||
20x20 m large phreatic tunnel with strong draught leading in direction of the rest of SMK left unexplored at the opposite side of a 40 m pitch. It
|
||
is also likely to connect to another significant find from 2017, Glucklich Schmetterlingerhoehle (‘Happy Butterfly Cave’; 291,), adding length to
|
||
the system.
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Second Camp:</b> An objective for this year is to establish a second top camp known as "Garlic Cave'', which is located further west than Stone
|
||
bridge, as a base for those exploring Homecoming Hole and Fischgesicht.
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Homecoming Hole (359):</b> discovered in 2018 at the western extent of our current area. This is planned to be the focus of further expeditions, but
|
||
if resources allow this cave will be pushed in 2022.
