An unspecified cave entrance (unidentified shape, unidentified dimensions, unidentified orientation, unidentified characteristics) once was said to give access to an estimated 4 m climb down for which expedition cavers need a ladder not only for descending but also for climbing back up again. IDENTITY: Not to be confused with the Tyngheng-Dieng Jem System [note 1] (Anonymous 2015.04.03 Mss: Diary 2015.docx 4th February 2015 Wednesday). ETYMOLOGY: The cave name -Krem Tyngheng- (note 2) was probably forwarded on 4th February 2015 by one Aram Tangliang, a wood cutter met by chance on the way back from Krem –>Lakhon, Umtapu, to the village of Umkyrpong (25°26'04”N: 92°34'48”E). SITUATION: In an unspecified setting and at an unidentified location two kilometres NW from Mooriap village. The short pitch was climbed down and surveyed. After only three survey legs the [invasion of the instantly penetrable part of the] cave was finished (Anonymous 2015.04.03 Mss: Diary 2015.docx 5th Februar 2015 Thursday). SPORTS DEVICE DESCRIPTION: Short pitch (Anonymous [Arbenz T, Brooks S J et al.] 2015.04.03 Mss: Diary 2015.docx 5th February 2015 Thursday). PROSPECTS: At a first glance, prospects are not very promising (Anonymous 2015.04.03 Mss: Diary 2015.docx 4th February 2015 Wednesday). Only upon having achieved to climb all the way down, the [invasion of the instantly penetrable part of the] cave was finished (Anonymous 2015.04.03 Mss: Diary 2015.docx 4th February 2015 Wednesday).

Kharpran Daly and an unidentified Scorpio driver called Ker [note 4] met Aram Tangliang, a wood cutter, who led them to Krem Tyngheng (Umkyrpong) not to be confused with the Tyngheng-Dieng Jem System and Krem Siej in the vicinity of Krem Lakhon [note 5] … Krem Siej, located in the valley just before reaching the climb to Krem Lakhon (with the limestone outcrops on the right hand side), was not penetrable; but on the way back they met Aram’s nephew who informed them that Krem Siej is in fact higher up the slope from the cavity they were shown (Anonymous [Arbenz T, Brooks S J et al.] 2015.04.03 Mss: Diary 2015.docx 4th February 2015 Wednesday). 2015.02.05, trip 2: Ker AA (no full name recognised), Peter Ludwig, Fraser E Simpson, Richa Jain and Ruben Cashler or Peter, Fraser, Richa, Ruben and Ker went out to explore the three caves that had been located by Brian, Ker nd their local guide the previous day. The location of the first cave, Krem Thyngheng (Umkyrpong), was two kilometres NW from Mooriap village. The short pitch was climbed down and surveyed. After only three survey legs the [invasion of the instantly penetrable part of the] cave was finished (Anonymous [Arbenz T, Brooks S J et al.] 2015.04.03 Mss: Diary 2015.docx 5th February 2015 Thursday).
