Team Rover got up horribly early (7.00 ish) & eventually left about 8.15. Looked at weather & went back to Loser Hütte for drinks. Eventually Wook (me), Del & Adam went caving & everyone else festered (again). Went to push 162. Bolted & laddered hole found on last trips, but only led to 20' high boulder choked bit. Could see through 5' holes to rift so dug hole in floor to get to rift but it choked at 38'. Descended 60' wet pitch on ladders (50'). Discrepancy made for some interesting athletic moves until 2nd ladder was re-rigged further down. Cave still going come time to go home.
A draughting crawl was located.
