Visits:

2000 – brief initial exploration

2001 – explore major inlet series on the right (with Spanish survey mark F7); this is missing from the survey and yet sources all the water in the cave – meaning that the main stream is completely unaccounted for

2003 – GPS

2007 – brief ‘warm-up’ trip

Other:

Worth another visit.
