Do You Like My Moms Feet

Switzerland - Rhätikon - Sulzfluh

research on the Sulzfluh in August 2007 - Discovery of the ice rink height 2113/100:
In the period from 16.08. until 19.08.2007 was after a few years, a research camp on the Tilisunahütte held. the 9 participants were members of both the members of Karst and Cave Ethnography Committee of the Vorarlberg State Museum Society and the eastern Swiss Society of Speleology and the National Association for caving in Vienna and Lower Austria .

goal was above all an extended survey of the terrain in the area of white plate and the Sulzfluh, where for a systematic exploration high-resolution orthophotos were available. In order to even leave no gaps on the surface open, search quadrants were marked out with the help of hard men and GPS location correctly calibrated. This system has already some years ago by the Swiss successfully applied in the area and has now been discontinued.
Overall, during the four research days 25 new objects are found , with four caves were accurately measured, including a center cavity. Some already known objects have exact coordinates are collected. With the discovery of the so-called ice rink cave , the research camp to be considered thoroughly very successful, as these are to date to the first cave in the central Sulzfluhplateau that have more pit stops in a larger and therefore only in its infancy leads unexplored horizontal system. The current gear length of the cave is 162 meters and a depth extent of 59 m .
Several sequels, which are ventilated in part also are available.

Further research in the cave ice rink:
In two trips to the only ice rink in August this year discovered the cave had been explored parts are measured, and also another new ground was found. The large horizontal duct, which takes at the end of the shaft about 70 m depth range in his approach has a number of still unprocessed side routes. The main continuation is a great bewetterter vent, identified by the ceiling in about 10 m height, two transitional approaches. The current path length of the cave is 255 m, the depth of 76 m. Further research in this very interesting cave are planned. participants: Herbert Flatz, Hans Stoxinger, Paul Schmiedinger, Rebecca Tsukalas, guitarist Alex
