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).
