It's already August, right?
In the summer of 2022, do not leave
Let's have fun with all our strength
Okinawa World “2022 Explore the Cave in the Southern Island”
There were hot explorers here today.
Replaced with exploration clothes and helmets are also installed
Thank you very much for taking the precautions seriously.

Introduction of Gyokusendo Cave to explore now, introduction of creatures you may meet
I explained the precautions for exploration.


Take a commemorative photo with all your friends before departure

Explore the cave, start-

The deputy commander asked the boy who was right behind me.
Good luck boy

Using a signboard, "Get over the railing here. . . . .
Go here. . . .


Deputy Commander to Gyokusendo Cave in Tension Ageague



The average cave is 21 degrees throughout the year.
So I feel cool when I enter summer, and when I enter winter I feel warm.


The sightseeing cave is finished soon
I'll go through the dekoboko road over the railing.


It's hard to understand in the picture, but when you put the light on the ceiling
It was so beautiful, shining in gold and silver.



The unpaved natural cave is scaffolding,
The rocks of Gragra, the muddy water, the depth is unknown
So I go slowly and slowly without panic.


Discovering something that glows red in water

He was a baby of Conjintenagae shrimp
My eyes were shining red


Do you remember observing Speleothem you studied in advance?
Observation party in front of the real thing

I was surprised at the speed of growth in Speleothem.
Grow at 3 times faster than the mainland


Well, the exploration so far is practice.
Finally, a full-fledged cave exploration has begun.
I'm going to that darkness.


Attention of feet overhead
And if possible, observe the left and right Speleothem.


Very long straw Soda straws
Have you grown so long over the years?

From all explorers, such as "Tsumetai" and "H"
The scream of joy echoed in the cave www


Water is approaching the head of a child explorer
Water temperature is about 18 degrees


Thank you for your cooperation in wearing a mask.
If you have difficulty breathing, you can move it properly.


Because the ceiling will be lower from here
They move in the middle hips, sometimes crawling on four sides





A friendly explorer who cares for his back members



I feel like I'm exploring it.



If you cross here, we will have a little rest time.
Another step


Everyone worked hard at the low ceiling.
Let's take a break here.
Commemorative photo with broken Speleothem

The back of the deputy commander
The guy in the back is trying to stab him.

This team took a commemorative photo in peace


This is a world of 40 meters underground
I had a dark experience after a break.
I turned off all the lights and experienced the original cave.
Let's take a break into
the second half of the game.
Replacing the front and rear members and resuming exploration with the "New Deputy Commander"



Where the ceiling is low is the last.
In the future, even adults can stretch their backs and walk where they can walk.
Let's step further and do our best




New Deputy Commander, looking up at the ceiling and looking for Okinawa least horseshoe bat

When I looked down, there was a lot of pure white and mysterious Speleothem





When you arrive at a certain point
Encountering countless Speleothem hanging from the ceiling
A lot of straw Soda straws, right?

The straw here was over 10 centimeters.
I can guess it has grown over 300 years.

A rock with a fine Stalactites is stabbing on the ground
The new deputy commander is visually checking

Other members are also checking
Why it is piercing is the secret of only the participating members

Do not pollute the beautiful Speleothem on the left and right ahead
Let's go after washing the gloves



New Deputy Commander: Rimstone Pool in Speleothem
I'm going to ride lightly.




There was also a mysterious Speleothem.
The explorer who couldn't afford it during the exploration
Take a look at the picture and remember it.




Commemorative photo at the last water deep rimstone pool

Outside the cold water challenge, it is 30 degrees steamed heat and heat.
Let's cool down at the end



The former deputy commander team also took a commemorative photo



Respond to my request, Cold Water Challenge
Sorry for taking pictures again and again, it was cold.

Former Deputy Commander, I will overcome the last rocky place with a dignified expression


Move over the last rocky place to the residence of Okinawa least horseshoe bat
Let's move quietly so as not to wake up Okinawa least horseshoe bat

Are you there ~ Okinawa least horseshoe bat
endangered species and Karana ~ The number is decreasing~

I could see a lot of 10 people flying.
Okinawa least horseshoe bat is a category of risk of extinction by the Ministry of the Environment (rank)
It is classified as an endangered IB (EN) 5th from the top.
There is a high risk of extinction in the wild in the near future.


In addition, one of the members is a natural monument of the prefecture.
Discovered Kuroiwa Kuroiwa's ground gecko

I watched it with the whole team.
I saw Okinawa least horseshoe bat and I was lucky

The last hashigo carefully

I saw the light on the earth.


Take a commemorative photo with all the friends who worked hard together


Gyokusendo Cave Unopened Area Conquest (`-') No
Hey, ('∀')
