Looking in S2 direction
Beginning of S2
S2 when the visibility is good !!!
entrance floor stone -2m
followed by sand on the way down to -4 -6m
once again follow the path
muddy compact bank again
beware also of the ceiling arch
stone of the exit
all re-equipped by David and Laurent in 8mm blue line
then the exit in the long long long gallery between S2 and S3 ... park your zepp !
we installed above the water level a rope to attach: scooters, stage tank ...
Frank Walter fixed the rope in the rock by a Spit
looking up, here start the beauties
Stalagtites everywhere
different colors
big
or small
but it's time to swim in 1 m or 20 cm deep for 250m
but look around, it's worth it
first little beach on the right side
above stalagtites
and stalagmite
look the ceiling
the gallery continue turning right, left, ...
look also underwater the strange mud-sand stalagmite
or dune edge
20 cm to go over ... Hell
second beach on the left, used as a "Bivouac" through the expedition push day
Domi exhausted by crossing the Hell Sand Dune with tanks, scooters, stages ...
passed the dune a bit more depth, 1m more easy to swim
keep an eye on the ceiling
last turn before S3 ; )))
