52747. View of the site in the collapse doline from its edge, on the way back, when the sun was shining again after the rain.






 
52745. The undergrowth next to the steps on the slope above the bottom of the doline, wet from raindrops and glistening in the sun.






 
52746. View from under the tarpaulin above the cave entrance back along the bottom of the collapse doline with piles of excavated stones


 

 


 
52739. View down from the ledge above the step where the shaft turns slightly to the right (north) and continues between the wall and a boulder as large as the truck bed.


 

 


 
52740. A little closer view, in which the rock leaning against the wall on the left is better visible. There is still over four meters down to the bottom.


 

 


 
52741. View from the wooden support to the current bottom of the cave






 
52742. The author excavated perhaps two buckets of rock at the bottom to fully expose the shelf running from the middle to the right edge of the picture. When it was still partly covered with stones, it seemed as if the place was not a shelf, but the bottom of the pit. It's not, it's just a shelf, and the pit continues down from the depth of 22 meters to an as yet unknown bottom.


 

 


 
52743. View from the bottom of the cave up the excavated pit






 
52744. Smooth, sliding surface of a stone dug from the pit, in the landfill on the surface.


 

 


 
52748. View of Članska vas, in the sun again. It was albeit windy and the author had to pick up the umbrella in the picture twice before he managed, in a third try, to get this shot.
