brief report on the research camp Swabian cave researcher at Albert-Appel-Haus from 30.07.-08.05.2007:
the result of this year Folas is encouraging: nearly 1,200 new meters were documented cave.
In the cave Holden (1624/160) were 690m new course explores . The new discoveries were made mainly in the area last year discovered Serengeti and 6-k-what? In the middle depth range, remarkably, could also be behind a 1986 back left question marks in the upper area still found 190m. Here too, potential sequels were left open. The total length of the cave is now 5.820m Holden.
Directly at the eastern entrance of the cave passage at the speaker's Stone (1624/20) was found Pangalaktische Donnergurglerschacht . A continuation can bewetterte to new discoveries in the region between the cavity and the old boys' cave Holden (1627 / 3) hope.
The most positive development resulted in the beautiful Loch (1624/21) . The Ice Lake at the base of the lobby is open! The course has continued to attract the same dimensions, but unfortunately it ends soon in a ream Enver fall. Because daylighting we speculate on a similarly open connection to the twin well (1624/22). The research will continue here next year. In the
Altherren cave was finally the tomb, the continuation of the Southwest canyons measured. There we are in a backwater area, the floor, the walls and ceiling are covered with an ugly black layer. The course ends in a mud cone, the water disappears into a narrow impassable sequel. Again, a hope for a connection to Holden has broken cave. In the upper area of the Southwest canyons could be climbed one slot, but soon sinks into the sediment. A sequel is drawn up. The old boys cave is now 1856 m long. North of the house were
Appel visited several caves: cave bears' nests, the autumn cave, the Icarus cave and the labyrinth cave, here are remarkable rock carvings. (Richard Frank, 8.2007)
