115 - MarkD & Anthony install a radon detector in 115
Anthony Day
Tramped along the Stogerweg armed with a GPS location for 115.
Neither of us had been there before, but I recalled seeing a marking
showing the way to the cave from the main 204 path. This we duly found
and wandered off in the direction of the arrow. Spotted a small entrance
which we (erroneously) took as a sign that we were very close to the
main entrance. Spent 30 mins thrashing around in bunde and teetering
down cliffs whilst the distance to the cave remained stuck at around 30m
according to the GPS. We suspected we were too high, and eventually got
low enough down that we could see the entrance.
Went in for about 5 mins, through a crawl which enlarges to a small
chamber before a climb down. The radon detector is hung in an alcove on
the right (on the way in) in this chamber to keep it out of the
(considerable) draught. Satisfied with our day's work, we headed off to
the Loserhütte for a jar.
