This passage is 210 meters long and if you should fall there is a 9 meter
 drop into water. It is about 3 to 4 kilometers underground. For those of
 you that want it in American measurements: 690 feet long and 30 feet into
 water, and about 2 miles underground. The walls are covered in slippery
 mud and your feet are constantly sliding as you "Chimney" thru this
 passage.   When you Chimney you are using you feet and hands and back
 to press against the walls of the cave.  You are off the ground and you
 must be constantly aware of every move you make.  Your body should
 have 3 points of contact with the cave walls at all times to avoid falling.
