Day 10 Wind Cave and Clearwater Cave

These are the final two caves in Mulu National Park.  Wind Cave is so named because of the wind that runs through it.  Its features unique to all others. I can’t give you a scale on these pictures other than saying that these caves are HUGE.  The stalagmites and stalagmites sore 20-40 meters in height, they caves can fit 10 or more 747’s in them!   Again, pictures are more valuable than words.

Clearwater Cave is most everybody’s favorite.  It is huge, with so many unique features.  Our guide, Omar, was in on some of the exploratory treks in the  1980’s so he could point out unique features, and some of the left-over climbing gear in different parts of the cave.  Descriptions are inadequate, just enjoy the pictures.
