RAMTHANGHAKA CAVE
22.718300,92.640500
Description
A relatively short, 12 m lang cave represents an impenetrable subterranean bypass of a locally blocked gully, which flows -- during the rains only -- to south-west (225°). The cave entrance (up to 4 m wide and 2.5 m high) lies on the right hand side (north-west, 315°) of the gully and gives access to a daylight lit collapse area (about 5 cubic metres, up to 4 m wide, 1 m high, 3 m long) with three crawls (two towards north-west 315° and one towards north-east 045°) leading to impenetrable constrictions. SITUATION: An estimated 150 vertical metres south west below the road from S. Lungrang (note 1) approximately north to to West Rotla (note 2).A relatively short, 12 m lang cave represents an impenetrable subterranean bypass of a locally blocked gully, which flows -- during the rains only -- to south-west (225°).
