Loser Plateau - 76 carry
Jenny Black
Decided to drive up the the night before + sleep in the car at the
Bergresteraunt carpark in order to get an early start before it got to
hot. Met some very friendly German cavers in the carpark -> their area
is a 5-6hr walk away past Apelhaus. Swapped email addresses and
websites.
Walked up to bivi and set lots of things up: water tarp, other tarp,
tent etc. Took photos of 97 and 148 cos they didn't have any photos
yet. Waited till it was less hot to walk back. Got distracted by a
"new" cave -> marked by a cairn, but no evidence of exploration (the
cairn may just be marking the path). this will be 2006-70 it is
a crawling/stooping horizontal entrance that draughts out. After ~10m
there is a restricted pitch head that appears to open out into a ~5m
pitch. Currently un-descended, but seems to land on a snow/rocky
slope. Having been distracted by this cave, we got back to the car too
late to do another carry back up, so slept in the car again.
