#321 - Spelunking Sumaguing Cave.

Good day again my dear Hiveans. Crypto is going crazy everywhere where mostly are or were red because of news coming from China. Is the $100k target for Bitcoin still viable coming December? Only time will tell.

Allow me to share these shots taken when there was still no lockdowns and everyone can go wherever they pleases. This was in the northern part of the country where it is cold and fresh air is abundant. Where there is a relief from stress just by looking at the mountains and the tall trees around. And of course going under some caves!

This is inside the Sumaguing cave where we have to stop for a while and rest. The old gas lamp which was brought by our guide shines bright.

The temperature down here was cold too and there are streams of water which are even colder and some are even deep which can reach up to the chest area.😅

This is the ceiling of the cave upon descending to the cave wherein it is close enough to reach on some points. The locals have also installed these metal barriers along some cemented stairs leading to a few more meters down the cave until there are no more cements but the cave structure itself.

It is a long way down there. An opening of the cave revealed lights as it passes through.

This is the main entrance of the cave where there are also some kinds of plants that are growing.

My wife and I and behind is a rock formation that could grow bigger as time passes by. We are wet at this point because there was a stream of cold water we passed by which was about chest deep.

Follow me on my nature travels.
