Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

A goodly sized cave (Cowper -Cooper- 2005.02.25 Mss: Krem Kurisha IV) or mud choked cave (Arbenz, T 2005.02 Mss: Abstracts.xls) introduces Cowper -Cooper- (2005.02.25 Mss: Krem Kurisha IV) as a nice sheltered cave that can almost be walked (scrambled into) to a medium sized [and] well decorated chamber. There is a pitch of 9 m here to a mud and pebble filled small passage. SITUATION 1 (Cowper -Cooper- 2005.02.25 Mss: Krem Kurisha IV): Follow the wild jungle [yeah! do it! do it!] in a SE direction from the impressive but dissappointing Kurisha 2 for about 80 m into the next bamboo filled doline. On the far end, the cave is obvious at knee level, under the corner of a large block. SITUATION 2: According to the recorded GPS positions lies the fourth Krem Kurisha at a distance of 100.3 m in a direct line approximately east-south-east from the first Krem –>Kurisha. CAVE DESCRIPTION (Cowper -Cooper- 2005.02.25 Mss: Krem Kurisha IV): Length: About 30 m not surveyed. Depth: About 15 m. Goodlysized cave (no crawling, just walking), that stops cavers continuing after about 30 m.
