A cave survey is a map of all or part of a cave system, which may be produced to meet differing standards of accuracy depending on the cave conditions and equipment available underground. Cave surveying and cartography , i.e. the creation of an accurate, detailed map, is one of the most common technical activities undertaken within a cave and ...
In 2004, an international caving expedition led by the U.S. Deep Caving Team discovered a new cave they named J2. The entrance of J2 located 5 kilometres (3.1 miles) northeast of the Cheve entrance. J2 appears to head in the direction of Cheve Cave, with a predicted intersection beyond the tunnel collapse that stopped the team in 2003.
[2] [8] They had the cooperation of S. E. Lauritzen at the University of Bergen who at the time was the only one in Norway doing professional research on the caves. [ 8 ] Exploration has been undertaken by two Norwegian diving organizations, with Norsk Teknisk Dykkekrets doing much of the early surveying and Reel Action Diving continuing the ...

Passage in Secret Caverns. Secret Cave is part of a larger cave system, the Secret-Benson Cave System, which consists of 6,200 feet (1,900 m) of passage. [4] [5]The show cave starts at the discovery entrance, which has mostly been sealed with concrete with a small opening to allow bats to enter and exit the cave, although bat populations has been low since an outbreak of White-nose syndrome in ...
Speedwell Cavern is one of the four show caves in Castleton, Derbyshire, England. [1]The cave system consists of a horizontal lead miners' adit (a level passageway driven horizontally into the hillside) 200 metres (660 ft) below ground leading to the cavern itself, a limestone cave.
The dry part of the abyss is 69.5 metres (228 ft) deep. There is a small lake at the bottom. Below the surface, the abyss was mapped to a depth of −170 metres (−560 ft) (Pavel Říha, 2005), followed by a dive to a depth of −181 metres (−594 ft) (Starnawski, 2000) and a 21 June 2012 dive to a depth of −217 metres (−712 ft ...
