<p><b>Altitude:</b> 1797m<br>
<b>Position:</b> E 36093 N (52)82288 (Tag)<br>
<b>Marking:</b> "1623 156 CUCC 1987" on alloy tag on west side of more
southerly opening, more-or-less directly above the first rigging bolt
<p><b>Location:</b> <span lang=de-at>Vorderer Schwarzmooskogel,</span> 50m
south of <a href="../handbook/survey/lasers.htm">laser rangefound point
0/1</a>. The recently (1998) cairned route up the <span lang=de-at>Vd.
Schwarzmooskogel</span> NW flank passes very close to the laser point, and
skirts the NE end of the open rift of 156. Surface survey connecting Tag and original survey ( to top rigging bolt) done in 1999.

<p>An open rift with a rock bridge. Pitch of 25m drops onto snow bank, and
route to southeast of this drops a further 15m to a complete choke with
snow.
<p><b>Survey:</b> Grade 1 plan/elev of 156 and T.B.H. from
<a href="../years/1987/log.htm">1987 Log Book</a>
<p><b>Exploration:</b> CUCC 1987
<p>The <a href="../years/1987/log.htm">log book</a> refers to
exploration in the vicinity of 0/1 including 156 and a nearby cave
(unnumbered in 1987) <a href="199.htm">Tumbling Boulder Hole</a>. There is,
however, another piece of paper which says it is very near (and NE of) point
0/2. This appears to arise from the diagram which accompanies the log book
entry, which shows 0/2 with no north arrow, and uphill up the page. If the
point was really 0/1 on this diagram, then the descriptions would match, with
north at 7 O'Clock on the diagram. The logbook suggests that the discoverers
had visited 0/2 (and found very little nearby) and then 0/1 later, finding
156. GPS location and later a surface survey (1998) confirms that 0/1 is the
correct laser point.
