<p><b>Altitude:</b>1762m, length 91m, depth 39m<br>
|
|
|
|
<b>Location:</b> 36462 E, 82362 N (start of underground survey, main entrance, ~2m from tag)<br>
|
|
|
|
<b>Marking:</b> tag at main entrance "CUCC 1999-01"
|
|
|
|
<P>The main (first) entrance is a 2m x 0.5m shaft around 5m higher and 7m
|
|
away from a larger, snow-plugged shaft (the second entrance), which in
|
|
turn is just above a snow field, a little higher than the Eishöhle path.
|
|
Both entrances lie on an obvious fault line which heads uphill for around
|
|
100m. If the fault line is followed up to just past a squeeze through
|
|
bunde, you can turn left for around 100m to reach the entrance to 1623/136,
|
|
<a href="161/136.htm">Steinschlagschacht.</a>
|
|
|
|
<P>The main entrance is rigged off a spit and naturals and drops around 8m,
|
|
via a natural deviation at a ledge, to a small chamber. A crawl leads off
|
|
from here at head height for some distance, but closes off. The way on is
|
|
to continue straight down through the floor of this chamber, through
|
|
fairly solidly wedged boulders (quite tight) using the rope rigged on the
|
|
entrance pitch. This lands at the head of a walking sized rift heading
|
|
steeply down. There are two small passages in the wall where the rope
|
|
comes down [these connect to the horizontal entrance of
|
|
<b lang="de">Nordalpenhöhle,</b> see below]. Clamber down the rift. At
|
|
the bottom is the snow plug from the second entrance. It is possible to cross
|
|
the snow plug. At the far side, the passage closes down and is mud filled
|
|
with no draught.
|
|
|
|
<P>The way on is a flat-out crawl under the right wall, immediately before
|
|
the snow plug. The crawl was dug because it was draughting out quite
|
|
strongly. Once under the wall, the roof immediately rises to comfortable
|
|
crawling height and the passage widens. After 5m, roomy phreatic passage
|
|
is reached, around 5m wide and 3m high. A roof tube leads off to the
|
|
right. It can also be reached by a roof crawl from further down the
|
|
passage on the left. The tube leads to two small chambers and ends in a
|
|
too-tight rift.
|
|
|
|
<P>The floor of the main passage starts to drop away as the passage turns to
|
|
the right, leaving a ledge along the left wall. A trickle of water enters
|
|
at floor level. A pitch is rigged off the ledge using spits in the left
|
|
wall. This pitch drops 10m and ends in a choked chamber. An exposed
|
|
traverse on the left, beyond the pitch head, leads to a choked tube.
|
|
Directly across from the pitch head, a further roof tube also chokes.
|
|
|
|
<P>A third, horizontal entrance is found by heading down to the snow filled
|
|
shaft (the second entrance) and traversing left beneath a small cliff for
|
|
around 20m. This leads to a low, unobvious hole at foot height, noticed
|
|
because it was draughting out quite strongly. There is a surface survey to
|
|
this third entrance from the first entrance.
|
|
|
|
<P>The horizontal entrance begins with a flat out crawl in sticky mud, and
|
|
reaches a small, low chamber. The low passage continues as hands and
|
|
knees crawling. This passes a window on the left which looks into the
|
|
snow-filled shaft (the second entrance). Straight ahead and a little
|
|
further, an eyehole looks into the chamber which the first entrance pitch
|
|
lands in. Continuing on, straddling over a rock ridge leads to two
|
|
further eyeholes which look into the sloping rift passage where the rope
|
|
ends from the first entrance pitch.
