Engelbrecht Cave West
Advanced Cave: CDAA site rating [1] [2]. Kategori ini berasal dari skema penamaan resmi dan menggambarkan pelatihan yang dibutuhkan untuk suatu lokasi.
The western dive entrance of Engelbrecht Cave, an Advanced Cave-rated passage of about 340 m to 12 m deep with two sumps, restrictions and a rain-affected first sump.
A long stairway of cut limestone blocks leads from the viewing platform in the western tourist cave down to a small entrance pool. The first sump, about 100 m long, begins with a narrow restriction that divers pass one at a time and ends at another flat restriction before an inner air chamber with a rock pile and crescent-shaped lake.
Beyond the rock pile a second sump, usually very clear, continues with several side passages to a rock collapse and a small surfacing pool with room for two or three divers. The CDAA rates the passage Advanced Cave and gives a total length of about 340 m and a maximum depth of 12 m.
Lingkungan
Fresh water in shallow sumps under the city; restrictions, an air chamber and a rock pile to cross on foot.
Kondisi
Storm water can enter the first sump after heavy rain, so visibility there ranges from very clear to nil; the second sump is usually clear.
