PHUD JASIM, 2nd (Krem)
25.266700,91.583300
Description
About 15 m east of the first Krem –>Phud Jasim, the second cave on the Jasim stream is one of the most frequently not-surveyed caves of Meghalaya. CAVE DESCRIPTION: The south-east facing cave entrance is obstructed by a few fallen boulders but a short and easy squeeze gives access to walking-sized cave passage with a shallow, probably perennial stream flowing in a bed of coarse sand. CAVE POTENTIAL: Surveying might yield a cave similar and parallel to the first Phudjasim cave. It might even bypass the so-called »terminal collapse« of the first Krem Phudjasim and gain the pair of headwaters feeding the pair neighbouring caves.
