Location
The doline in which this sink is located is on the southern side of the Tham Pong Chang valley, 100 m beyond the end of the vehicle track. It is referred to on the map as Pong Chang Bon.
Description
The sink was dry in April 1996, but obviously takes water in the wet season. The entrance squeeze was not attempted due to the presence of bad air in the 2 m deep stream channel at the bottom of the doline.
