CUCC Expeditions to Austria: 1976 - 2023

After a very sweaty walk up to the top of the Schwartzmoos and down to the cave, Ben and I set about doing a surface survey. The cave entrance was measured first giving an opening on the surface 9m x 6m with an entrance shaft 15.2m. From the cave entrance a surface survey was carried out to the summit of the Schwartzmoos. The cave lies 126m on a bearing of 194° from the summit of the Schwartzmoos at an altitude of 1796m. (Oh God - I think I've spelt Schwartzmoos wrong all the way through this tome!) After surveying, Ben and I retreated to the Bergrestaurant to work out the survey, identifying wild flowers on the way down.
