Summary: machine translated ➜

gloomy, vertical rappel canyon, mostly with a lot of water, which can not be avoided several times; first rappel with free transfer; rappel (r) under big block (lamp!!!) can be defused by short hanging and overclimbing right into a chute; strongly flood & mudflow endangered! A mudflow in 2011 (?) has filled the underground part of the canyon, so that it is not accessible (as of 2023).
