GORMAC TANGI GHARA 2

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

A small solution tube (0.3 m across) is too small to be entered by Simon J. Brooks and Boyd Potts (Orpheus Caving Club). CAVE DESCRIPTION: A single chamber, 5 m deep. SITUATION: On the crest of an obvious ridge of steeply dipping Dungan Limestone at a spot that lies in an unspecified spatial relation to –>Gormac Tangi Ghara. CULTURAL HISTORY - legend: Unacknowledged local people (no names mentioned) suggested that –at certain times of the year- the draught (air current) can sound like running water. From a Derbyshire residents point of view, though, given a situation of this cave, this is unlikely. CAVE CLIMATE: The small solution tube emitted in October 1993 an aircurrent which expedition cavers identified as a draught (note 1).A small solution tube (0.3 m across) is too small to be entered by Simon J.
