Mission Statement
The Schwarzmooskogel system is the most extensive cave system below the Loser Plateau, following recent connections the system has a total length just short of 100 km and a depth of over 1 km. Of this CUCC has contributed by surveying over 65 km.
In 2012 a breakthrough was made by connecting Kaninchenhöhle (161), which is part of the Schwarzmooskogel system, to the Tunnockschacht-Steinbrückenhöhle system (258/204) creating a combined system exceeding 90 km.
This year expo hopes to push north from Tunnocks at multiple levels and take the total length of the system over 100km.
