Description

GS Vulcains - 04/01/2020

A 2 m descent over muddy boulders leads to a 1.5 m wide stream. Downstream sumped immediately. Upstream flows well over deep silt to a duck at 20m then, 10m further on, reaches a sump (which may be open in the dry season). The downstream sump was investigated and found to be nearly blocked by silt.
