Description

Brief description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 05/07/2016

An estimated 5 m wide circular cave entrance descends an estimated 10 m vertically down to a floor where boulders and vegetation obscure possible ways on. ETYMOLOGY: No autochthonous, indigenous or locally known name has been identified for what passing outsiders referred to as »Zuala Pouk« (Georg Bäumler 1999 personal communication) because Zuala Ralsun from Khaddum (in 2006 taxi driver in Shillong) had guided Georg Bäumler to this cave entrance.
