Description

Martin Ellis - 07/07/2019

This is the next upstream section of Tham Lom. The entrance is a collapse and by following the draft one reaches a stream which flows south. There are direction arrows on boulders and two Buddha statues in the main passage. In both directions (north and south) it is choked by massive boulders. The south choke can not be passed. However, the north one can be climbed to a second entrance which is in a doline just into Myanmar, visited by the SpeleoDAO 2015 expedition, where there is a fine relict cave. This new entrance is opposite to this cave. The doline was investigated to try to find the way into the upstream continuation of the cave, but without success.
