Description
Krem Ditar Partner #2: N 25 15 27.0 E 91 18 32.0 1095 m asl, is located just above (to the East) Krem Ditar Partner #1 (KDP#1). This cave is longer than KDP#1, but the passages are small and must be traversed on hands and knees with occasional belly crawls. The cave has multiple mini-levels that intersect each other at about 90 degrees. Some potential for survey footage, but the cave morphology is a bit grim. Bats, wet floor and sand present (Zawada 2004.04.21 personal correspondence).
