CUCC Expeditions to Austria: 1976 - 2023

Fetched the gear we’d dumped yesterday just beyond the boulder choke + tottered down Flying High to dump them at Starfish Junction. Left a tacklesack arrow for the others then up to the snow + leaves aven. I climbed up as far as the window in the main aven but way on blocked with snow – cool draft coming out though. Then to the end of the passage where Matt thought 07-60x looked worth returning to. Back at Starfish discovered the others had missed our arrow but taken our bags to Caramel Catharsis so we went via the Just For a Laugh route to the top of String Theory to meet them packing the gear that Chris and Anthony had derigged Caramel Catharsis so we went via the Just For a Laugh route to the top of String Theory to meet them packing the gear that Chris and Anthony had derigged yesterday. They headed out whilst we gave them a long head start and dumped our tacklesacks at Dubious Pleasure and checked out the pitch 08-40A in Hedonism Highway which seemed to be drafting out and looked a very promising lead to me. Finally Crossword Passage which was drafting strongly – this needs updating on the survey. Out first in time to see the last of the other group leaving the entrance and slogged out with fat tacklesacks.
