<p><b>Altitude:</b> 1880m<br>
<p><b>Location:</b> 13&deg; 50' 06" E, 47&deg; 42' 02" N<br>
A large depression on the Hohes Augst-Eck ridge about 1km SSW of
Ro&szlig; Kogel, is reached from the crest of the ridge above the obvious
rock arch, by following a large snow field to the head of the depression.
Contouring around to the south of the depression, following the bedding,
LA25 to 27 are close together.<br>
LA26 is approximately 200m SE of <a href="la25.htm">LA25</a>
<p>A large low opening behind a large snow field soon develops into a large
horizontal passage dropping to a choke after 50m. A climb up before the
choke reaches a loose ramp. Uphill in the ramp chokes, whilst down the slope
passes an oxbow toreach a drippy choked chamber. Opposite the point of entry
to the ramp, a slot in the wall reaches an ascending ramp. To the left is a
small inlet, and to the right is a pitch into the rift. A climbable bypass
gains the roof of the drippy chamber.
