Description: |
Considered the Everest of Australian cave diving. Large doline leads to a substantial muddy lake. The first sump terminates in a steep rockpile after approximately 1km underwater. The second sump continues past the rockpile for 2.5km and terminates in a large dry chamber "Toad Hall". The final sump has been been dived to over 1.9km where the cave passage reduces from a large cavernous cross section to a small conduit where side-mount and then no-mount cylinder configuration is needed. See history page below for more information. |
