In two outings, made in two different years (December 29 and January 4), we have continued to increase this difficult cave. In the first I (Mez) and Wainer we were able to cross, about 15 meters from its base, shaft "patches" that had been seen by Luca Grillandi last time. Reached the clear window, by a landslide slope, you come to attack another leap of twenty feet. The floor consists of a roof terrace, shangai almost a block : below you can imagine, throwing the stones, the well continues for as many yards before the actual base. We try to reach the only passable hole without touching the precariously balanced rocks that are around us. When cleaning the wall Wainer off a "caterpillar rock", who passed not too far from me to be a "grave" the passage that we are trying to reach ... Looking good but
around (I wonder how come you do not ever just as it should), we find that in a corner of the room a short and narrow meandering leads to a parallel shaft, in solid rock. The only problem is access, which is in the form of a narrow horizontal flared below ... With a fancy rig we to go down too well, and below us the cave continues, always with a large, vertical, and no our material!
We also see the pit sawn in two by landslide roof: also very bad there, but fortunately no need to pass in the middle.
the second exit, to January, unfortunately, due to other problems, we can not continue the exploration ... However, we have brought in new ropes and cave attacks (which are already relatively close to where needed) and, very importantly, we also added a dozen routes to major in areas not so comfortable.
remember that if someone wants to explore the cave with us is still valid, the motto "pain shared is a joy" to those less inclined to depths there is still much to do, in areas near the entrance.
