04.09 Vorarlberg Spätenbach Mario Rojer 5/5⭐ 💧
Einiges an Veränderung im Vergleich zum letzten Jahr. Nach der neuen Wasserfassung kein Kettenstand mehr. Hier vom Stahlanker der Drahtseile abseilen. Danach Felssturz vor der Höhle. Hier Oro rechts Abklettern und dann über der alten Höhle neuer Kettenstand. Der Stand in der Decke der Höhle noch vorhanden, diese kann aber nicht mehr begangen werden. Übrigen Abseiler i.O. beim letzten Abseiler liegt noch einiges an Restseil vom Seilgeländer.
There have been quite a few changes compared to last year. There is no longer a chain anchor past the new water intake. Rappel down from the steel anchor of the wire ropes here. After that, there’s a rockfall in front of the cave. Downclimb to the right here, and then there’s a new chain anchor above the old cave. The belay station in the cave ceiling is still there, but it’s no longer accessible. The rest of the rappels are fine; on the last rappel, there’s still quite a bit of leftover rope from the rope traverse.
04.09 Vorarlberg Kobelache Mario Rojer 5/5⭐ 💧
Komplette Kobelache im Anschluss an Spätenbach nochmal begangen. Weiterhin alles i.O. Fixseilen im Mayerloch und vorm Abschlusssprung Merlin werden getauscht. Baumstamm unter der letzten Rutsche aktuell auf 1,50m Wassertiefe noch drin.
We re-rained the entire Kobelache section following Spätenbach. Everything is still in good shape. The fixed ropes in the Mayerloch and before the final jump at Merlin will be replaced. The tree trunk under the last slide is still there at a current water depth of 1.50 meters.
04.09 Friuli Venezia Giulia Rio Ponte de Muro Seba 3/5⭐ 💧
Attenzione la pozza della penultima calata non esiste più. A causa di una scossa tellurica un enorme masso è scivolato nella pozza dove si tuffava..anche la calata successiva è a rischio in quanto ci sono grossi massi instabili sopra la linea di calata
Please note that the pool at the second-to-last rappel point no longer exists. Due to an earthquake, a huge boulder slid into the pool where people used to dive... the next rappel point is also at risk because there are large, unstable boulders above the rappel line.
04.09 Tessin Combra (Val Malvaglia) Marco 5/5⭐ 💧
Nivel óptimo de caudal. Anclajes en buen estado. Barranco alpino corto y muy estético. Pensábamos que escurría más pero agarra bastante más que boggera siendo mucho más abierto. Al llegar al tobogán de 20 metros una persona de un grupo de cuatro que iban por delante ha tenido rotura de tobillo y hemos tenido que evacuarlo. Ha tenido suerte ya que éramos un grupo de 20 y lo hemos sacado por el escape que hay antes del caos de piedras. Esperamos que se recupere y no sea mucho
Optimal water flow. Anchors in good condition. A short and very scenic alpine ravine. We thought the water would flow faster, but it actually holds much more water than the Boggera, even though it’s much more open. Upon reaching the 20-meter slide, one person from a group of four ahead of us broke his ankle, and we had to evacuate him. He was lucky because there were 20 of us, and we got him out through the escape route before the rocky chaos. We hope he recovers and that it isn’t too serious.
04.09 Friuli Venezia Giulia Rio Simon (Inferiore) Peisen 4.5/5⭐ 💧
Nette, einfache Schlucht. Keine komplizierten stellen.
A nice, easy canyon. No tricky sections.
04.09 St. Gallen Tersolbach superior Isabella Rosenau 5/5⭐ 💧
Heute begangen, Wasserstand perfekt, alle Haken i.O.
Completed today; water level perfect; all anchors in good condition.
03.09 Vorarlberg Kobelache Mario Rojer 5/5⭐ 💧
Nochmal zum Nachtcanyoning in Merlin's World gewesen. Wie vorher alles i.O.
Went night canyoning at Merlin's World again. Just like last time, everything went smoothly.
03.09 Piemonte Alba Enrico Rispoli 3.5/5⭐ 💧
Canyon lungo e non poco impegnativo... Acqua fredda, alcune cascate molto belle soprattutto nella parte alta, quella da 250 m invece non è spettacolare, la parte che ci è piaciuta meno
A long and quite challenging canyon... Cold water, some very beautiful waterfalls—especially in the upper section—but the 250-meter one isn't spectacular; that was the part we liked the least.
03.09 Kärnten Wunznbach Glitzi 1.5/5⭐ 💧
Der obere Teil hat viel Holz und die Stände sind zum Teil nicht vorhanden. Beim Aufstieg in der Schlucht bleiben und auf knapp 880 Meter einsteigen. Der untere Teil ist ok
The upper section has a lot of trees, and some of the trail markers are missing. During the ascent through the canyon, stay on the trail and climb to just under 880 meters. The lower section is fine.
03.09 Piemonte Piane sup Matteo Delfitto 2/5⭐ 💧
Percorso dopo tanti anni dalla prima esplorazione... gli armi sono ancora in buone condizioni, tutte le calate tranne la prima (evitabile) hanno catena con anello (no inox), qualche mancorrente Abbiamo aggiunto un punto singolo sulla sx all'ultima calata che così si può fare sotto flusso Poi proseguito per intermedio e inferiore... tra le sezioni ci sono due lunghe camminate fra blocchi, a volte conviene uscire dal torrente e camminare nel prato
A route revisited many years after the first exploration... the anchors are still in good condition; all the rappels except the first (which can be bypassed) have chains with rings (not stainless steel), and there are a few handrails We added a single anchor point on the left at the last rappel, so you can rappel with the water flowing below Then we continued to the intermediate and lower sections... between the sections there are two long walks among boulders; sometimes it’s better to leave the stream and walk across the meadow
03.09 Piemonte Mondelli inf Horst Lambauer 4/5⭐ 💧
Alle Stände ok. Wir sind heute sup., intermedio und inf gegangen. Wir haben dafür 4,5h benötigt und waren aber nicht schnell unterwegs, sondern haben auch Pausen gemacht und die Gegend genossen - als Info bezüglich der Zeitangaben.
All trails are in good condition. Today we hiked the superiore, intermedio, and inferiore trails. It took us 4.5 hours, but we didn't rush—we took breaks and enjoyed the scenery—just so you know regarding the time estimates.
