43367. Claudio has just loaded another bucket with rocks, and is releasing it up to ...
43366. ... Ludvik who pulled it out, and passed it forward to Goran and Matej.
43369. The author's lunch was supposed to take place before the today's action but an unexpected delay in the Logatec Industrial Zone moved it to later time. In the picture: chicken soup with hemp and spinach noodles, baked rabbit leg, bread, beetroot, oatmeal cookies, dates, apple compote with red grapes (yet to be poured into the little brown pot from the large vacuum flask).
43370. The author just passed a bucket to Claudio who is hauling it up.

43375. Claudio cleared the floor of the chamber perfectly. The continuation is a hole below the rock, lower center left in the picture ...
43374. ... here seen up close.
43376 and 43377. The photographer managed to get the phone camera below the rock, deeper inside, but could not get the helmet with the light there, too, the space was about 5 cm too narrow. So he used the camera flash to make two adjacent pictures, here seen stitched together into one. The continuation is obviously below the rock lower right, and the rock is quite sizeable, more a wall outcrop wall than a rock. Pebbles, thrown into this void fell about 5 - 10 meters deeper, with a good echo.
43378. View up and north from the bottom of the chamber below the entrance ...
43379. ... and view up and south, towards the entrance
43380. Claudio and Ludvik already departed the site, view down the slope to the forest track
