Grottocenter / carte

Location

The depression that contains Tham Turakit Maiset, TF10 and TF12 is easy to get to provided you are able to get through the locked gates of the National Park. A good track leads directly to a logging/mining camp which inhabits the depression. If you have to walk it is a 4 hour uphill trek. This cave is located in the cliff face of the depression.

Description

Martin Ellis - 18/09/2019

An entrance chamber descends to the streamway. Right leads downstream for 45 m to a sump. Upstream the water shortly sumps again. A passage leads off before the sump to a high level interconencting fossil section. This can be followed left to another entrance or right to pick up the streamway once more in 2 places before finally ending in a streamway sump. The survey is very similar to that of KA0227 Tham Nam Phra Khoan
