No autochthonous, indigenous or locally known name has been identified for an unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation), which is not only entering an [allegedly] unstable boulder choke but also believed to give access to Krem Shalong but known to go straight down, but it is unclear whereto (Henry B. Dawson, Ksan Kupar -Ronnie- Mawlong and David Cooke in: Arbenz, T. et al. 2011.03.27 undated Mss: 2011 Diary.doc: Friday 18th Feb 2011). SITUATION: At an unidentified location with an unidentified GPS position … at the base of a cliff entering an [allegedly] unstable boulder choke underneath [what had been in February 2001] a fig tree (Henry B.
