| Structural Properties and formation : It is entered through a mouth of approximately 2.5 squaremeters; followed by a descent with an incline of 6 m leading into a 3 m passage. This section is completely filled up by water during rainy seasons; resulting in an "elbow" siphon. Immediately after elbowing; the cave suddenly elevates around 3 m first; reaching to a spaciousness; then rises another 7 m. Then; the cave continues as a single gallery. Use of several techniques is required due to small travertine pool which is crossed by travertine bands; long lakes which do not allow any passage from time to time and narrow joints to be climbed over. It ends up with a siphon. |
| Research History: It was explored by MAD in 1995; and mapped to the BCRA 3c standard. |
