38380. Jerko with a welcoming heart from the back side of the door
38381. Mare, who just returned from the bucket pull-out duty at the cave entrance, and Žan engaged in a conversation about a tricky subject, with Jerko in the backdrop
38382. Fire in the outdoor fireplace, for the barbecue-to-be
38383. Today's harvest from the cave bottom, again over 40 buckets
38384. Brajko in the bucket transport relay station between the middle cave depot and the cave bottom
38385. Gregor is carving one more step below the 2 m vertical jump, to facilitate the ascent (and the descent).
38386. Still life with three rock-filled buckets
38387. Manč managed to bring another bucket from the bottom, and will take the two empty ones back with him
38388. The photographer also makes a small contribution to the bucket duty. As he passes members of the team on his way down the rocks continue to move up with as little interruption as possible (photo by Brajko).

38391. Manč in front of the wooden support wall which is keeping the collapse rocks at bay

38396. Žan was showing Mare and Jerko a photo on his phone.
38397. Gregor is collecting the remaining embers from the open fire - Jerko will put them below the barbecue grid.
38398. Metod brought some baked pork from the store, plus some add ons, especially the (inevitable) Kozel (He-goat) Czech premium dark beer.
38399. A simpler snack: goat yogurt, corn bread, beetroot salad, apple compote
38400. Why bother with lesser quality food? Gregor brought home made beef tripe stew.
38401. When the hunger is quenched ...
38402. ... everything goes much more easily: Gregor (hands only), Metod, Manč, Mare and Brajko.
