LYMOH, lower: Open Crack

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

A north-west-facing, letterbox-shaped cave entrance of unidentified size represents the second known cave entrance, which gives access to the lower Krem Lymoh or Porcupine Cave (Arbenz, T 2010) and Krem Lymmoh / Porcupine Cave. SITUATION: In an unspecified setting and at an unidentified GPS position in a location south-west above the Lymoh gorge (N25°24'48”: E092°36'23” WGS84), a tributary to the orographically left bank of the Kopili River (26°15'N: 92°10'E). APPROACH: To date (March 2011), the letterbox-shaped, second cave entrance to the lower Krem Lymoh (Porcupine Cave Arbenz, T 2010) is known to have been reached exclusively from inside the upstream branch of the cave by walking from the first cave entrance to the lower Krem Lymoh (near allegedly ±9 m N25°24'38.9”: E092°36'17.0”: 735 m asl WGS84) for about 40 m south-west across the rounded pebbles and cobbles covering the floor of the bedding-plane cave passage (on average 1.5 m high and up to 5m wide). CAVE DESCRIPTON: A horizontal crack in the SE wall (Arbenz, T 2011.04.10 dated -17.2.2010- updated -24thFeb.2011- Meghalaya Cave Record: Krem Lymmoh-Porcupine_Rec.doc).
