SIM TUNG 2 (Krem)

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

A vertical cave entrance (up to 1.2 m and an estimated 4 m wide), which appears to be asymmetrically guided by two orthogonal rifts which cross each other in unidentified directions, lies at the edge of an illegible ClEp2surh (or so), and gives access to a pothole where a extremely effective observation power results in noticing shaft (Brooks, S J 2010.02.18 Mss: Krem [deleted: Sintung] Sim/Tung 2 (shaft) 18/2/10). In the final analysis, this caving item is another one of initially five or several shafts (note 1) and later another four of which the sight of the entrances had been looked at and very high velocity sightseeing yielded the deepest of these was measured at -21m and would be worth a closer inspection (Anonymous et al. 2010.03.29 Mss: Diary (current) 2010.doc: 18th February). SITUATION 2010a: Brooks, S J (2010.02.18 Mss: Krem [deleted: Sintung] Sim/Tung 2 (shaft) 18/2/10) draws the attention of the speleological world to having created another circular reference according towhich the Sim Tung Shaft 2 is also located in the so-called [deleted: Sintung] Simt/Tung Area which is defined as the area where the Sim Tung caves are located in the Sim Tung area --and so on and on and on (note 2). SITUATION 2010b: Anonymous et al. (2010.03.29 Mss: Diary (current) 2010.doc: 18th February) places the five several shafts collectively to the North West of nowhere special and without identified spatial relation to each other. SITUATION 2010c: Both Brooks, S J (2010.02.18 Mss: Krem [deleted: Sintung] Sim/Tung 2) and Arbenz, T (2010.04.18 Mss: Pala Positions.xls) position the 2nd Sim Tung Cave near (allegedly ±10 m) N25°26'32.0”: E092°35'33.7”: 788 m asl (WGS84) and thus about 440 m NE from the 1st Krem Sim Tung and at a linear distance of about 1.5 km ENE from the central road junction in the village of Umkyrpong (N25°26'04”: E092°34'47” WGS84). CAVE DESCRIPTION 2010: Shaft (Brooks, S J 2010.02.18 Mss: Krem [deleted: Sintung] Sim/Tung 2). CAVE DESCRIPTION 2012a: m by 1.2 m shaft with no way-on (Arbenz, T 2012.07.20 undated Minor Caves record ”Krem Sim Tung 2” in: XSObjectsPala.doc). CAVE DESCRIPTION 2012b: Krem –>Sim Tung 2 probably not the same as Krem –>Sim Tung 1 but anyhow said to consist also of a T-shaped shaft with no way on (ARBENZ, T 2012: 240). m by 1.2 m shaft with no way-on (Arbenz, T 2012.07.20 undated Minor Caves record ”Krem Sim Tung 2” in: XSObjectsPala.doc). CAVE DESCRIPTION 2012b: Krem –>Sim Tung 2 probably not the same as Krem –>Sim Tung 1 but anyhow said to consist also of a T-shaped shaft with no way on (ARBENZ, T 2012: 240).
