My first ever cave in Austria, descended down very loose boulder
slopes to large pile of snow at bottom of pitches, fun sledging down.
First ever injury in Austria soon followed, jumping to avoid boulder
fall and landed on lovely smooth icy floor, same effect as banana skin!
A fun but painful trip followed. Found Apfelstrudel section of cave;
best bit was a chute that looked like a bob sleigh run, great going
down, tricky on the way out. Ended survey at exciting junction, pitch on
one side, stomping passage on the other. Back up pitches & down to top
camp for introduction to Holy Hand Grenade [Hungarian-donated alcoholic
beverage].
