Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 25/03/2016

An arch in the cliff with a hole in the left-hand corner, which leads to a low cave passage and a stream, which joins the passage approximately 30 m in and somehow sinks somewhere into boulders. Likewise somewhere, there is a 3 m climb to a cave passage which gets smaller but appears to be heading for the cave entrance 5 m above the cave entrance in the cliff. ETYMOLOGY: No locally known cave name has been identified for this cave on the banks of the Chibe River. SITUATION: At an inadequately described location somewhere lacking GPS position on the right-hand side of the river and approximately 10 m upstream of –>Chibe Rongkol, the resurgence of Chibe Cave 3.

History

EXPLORATION HISTORY: 1995.12.08: Jennifer 'Jenni' or 'Jenny' A. Brooks, Estelle Sandford, Kyrmen 'Hope' C Hiwot Passah and Lindsay B. Diengdoh visited, entered and "surveyed" (sports caver standards) 82 m to a degree yielding a survey length but no cave survey (cave plan) --hence, this was not only »quite a successful day« (BROOKS 1996: 29) but also »quite a productive day« (Brooks, S J in: BROOKS, S J et al 1998: 16).
