People: M&M Trybulec, Aro, A Durzynski
Place: Sokole Gory (Hawk Mountains), Pustelnica
Details:
This time we wanted to visit the Olsztynska Cave and the Wszystkich Swietych (All Saints') Cave.
Andrzej wanted to go down his first vertical cave (everything went fine).
All in all, we visited the above mentioned caves (Martha and Aro did a traverse of the two),
Schronisko Wschodnie, Posrednie and Zachodnie, Awen Zygmunta,
two small holes above Olsztynska and Szczelina Frakcji N.
Well, I had mixed feelings after this trip.
Not because of a lack of attractions in the caves themselves,
but because of peoples' moronic behavior.
Olsztynska was thoroughly filled with smoke (a group of teenagers lit a fire near the entrance),
so that you couldn't stay very long inside for the lack of breathable air.
There was a nice lump of shit in front of the entrance to another cave,
and a trash dump in yet another cave.
I guess the person that thought of the name homo sapiens was overly optimistic
or didn't know people very well... So, how can anyone believe in equality of people,
d***cracy or other sick ideas concerning peoples' governments?
Anyway we had a lot of fun and found interesting things in almost every cave.
I enjoyed most All Saints' Cave and Schornisko Zachodnie (above Zygmunt's Aven).
Olsztynska looked interesting, but the smoke didn't let us visit it for long.
Szczelina Frakcji N, on the other hand, was described by Aro
with the words: "What a b***ch!". Right... I don't think he liked it that much. :-)
See also the cave's description on Epimenides (in Polish).
[AD] The surroundings
[AD] Andrzej got a bit bored when we were at the bottom
[MUT] The team ready for some action - All Saints' Cave
[AD] I did the honors and rigged the descent
[AD] I don't think they trust me that much...
[AD]
[MJT] Aro's squeezing to Herbert's Bridge
[MJT] A small traverse
[MJT] Martha's rigging the last descent
[MJT] I don't know why she's so happy
[MJT] Aro's looking for a passage - formations in the last chamber
[MJT] Sometimes I'm really afraid of her...
[MUT] Behind me are the nice formations
[MUT] The return
[MJT] Martha didn't even notice that there was a squeeze there
[MUT] I had to fight with this one a bit
[MJT] Andrzej's first descent into a cave
[AD] The entrance pitch
[MUT] Andrzej was a bit smug, but he forgot that he had the way up still ahead of him!
[MJT] Szczelina Frakcji N: I and Andrzej didn't feel like squeezing into the intestines of this cave
[MJT] And it was quite tight inside
[MJT] Even Martha got stuck for a while somewhere inside
[AD] But she quickly forgot about it...
[MJT] The exit from East Shelter
[AD] Even in a small cave as this one you can find something interesting
[AD] Broken stalactites... what a pity
[AD] A web (at the bottom to the left you can see the spider)
[AD] Some calcite
[AD] Some nicer formations could be found in the harder to see holes
[AD] Sigmund's "Aven"
[AD] Calcite in the form of small pyramids
[AD] West Shelter: a tree, an explosion, or what?
[AD] Somebody was quite drunk when painting the roof of this cave
[AD] A very nicely chiseled wall (not visible on this picture: horizontal layers, a bit washed)
[AD] A flying saucer in a small side passage
