Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

A vertical walled shaft about 10 m in diameter (Ende 2007.02.11 Mss) needs rope for 10 m shaft and should be looked up. SITUATION 1: Somewhere on the western slope of the Shnongrim ridge below the village of Lumthymme (Lumthymmei) and in an unidentified spatial relation with the other Knee-Wrecker Pots in the same area above [Krem] Liat Prah. SITUATION 2 (Ende 2007.02.11 Mss: Knee-Wrecker Pot 5): Adjacent to KWP2. SITUATION 3 (Brooks, S J et al. 2009.02 Mss -Diary 2009.doc- Sunday 15th): Of the two cave entrances to Knee wrecker 4 and 5, one [lies] under the cliff walls of huge rocks and the other in between the big boulders and bamboo bushes in the slope of the hill, about 200 m down. APPROACH: Barbara am Ende (2007.02.11 Mss) and Jayne Stead KWP 5 is best reached from above (east). We found KWP 5 coming down the ridge to the north of the ridge you would use to get to KWP 2, then dropping into the valley.
