DAMBUSH KHOLA (Cave in the)

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 15/07/2016

»A 20 feet square [2 m by 2 m large cave] entrance debauches a stream of about 0.5 c.f.s. [cubic feet per second, 30 ltr/sec] which is itself precipitating [calcareous] tufa on the boulders; the stream can be followed up into the cave for nearly 100 feet [30 m], up some climbs into a narrow passage to a small choked chamber, where the water pours out of interstices in the terrace conglomerate in which the entire cave is formed« (WALTHAM 1971e: 49). Also known as »Tukche Cave N°6« (PAVEY 1976b: 8). SITUATION: At an unspecified location somewhere »In the gorge of Dambush Khola (or: Yamkin Khola) only half a mile [0.8 km] upstream of Tukche« (WALTHAM 1971e: 49).
