It's already August, right?
Okinawa, which is over 30 degrees today
It's hot, I'm going to burn.
Let's cool this hot summer by exploring caves

There were hot explorers here today.
Replaced with exploration clothes and helmets are also installed

I'm listening to 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

I'm going to go! Oh (`-') No

I asked the boy right behind me for the deputy commander.
And then he was a repeater who participated in 2019.
This is a reliable deputy commander.


Using a signboard, "Overce the handrails here. . . . . Gwar looks like this
Go here. . . .


Let's hurry to the cool cave

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.

Lighting the helmet lights and the explorer looks up at the ceiling

About 20,000 Stalactites hanging from the ceiling
The place named The Spear Ceiling

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.




Here's a little unusual Speleothem

Cave Pearl, Cave pearls

Small sand grains and the like grow at the core
The grain rotates by falling water and water flow, evenly calcified and rounds

Next, do you remember observing Speleothem you studied in advance?
Observation party in front of the real thing

Stalactites, straw Soda straws, Stalagmites, microgool, etc.


I was surprised at the speed of growth in Speleothem.
Grow at 3 times faster than the mainland
White Speleothem Let's enjoy nature without being polluted

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




The ceiling is low, and the cold water will attack from the knee to the chest.
Sometimes I say, "I'm worried because I can't swim, so I'm worried about participating."
It's a big jump.
Even a 6-year-old can get their feet.


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


Discovered traces of cracks in the water
This area is a dry area with no water until around May.
The water level returned due to the rainy season in June and heavy rain

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


The water is approaching the explorer's chest. The water temperature is about 18 degrees




Thumbs up without losing cold water

There were various forms of Speleothem
Have you grown over hundreds of years?

From now on, we will continue to move the middle backwards and move four crawlings.




Straw Soda straws and Stalagmites that will stick around in about 10 years


Maybe a child explorer could afford it.
I think adult explorers are hard.



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

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


This explorer was one of us.
I also took part in the commemorative photo.

Let's get along with this explorer ww

After a break, I experienced the original appearance of the cave.
Nature is amazing, isn't it?
The sound of drops in the silence was also wonderful.
Let's do our best in the second half of the game.





Before the explorer looks at it . . . .

Countless straw Soda straws
Straw Soda straws and others who have grown over 300 years

Below is a rock with many fine Stalactites . . .



There was such a mysterious Speleothem.
Jagged like a shark's tooth

Speleothem like a coral reef, a chandelier

The exploration is finally final.
If you go down a narrow road to the left and right, the exit is about to come.
Let's explore without worrying until the end



A number of Speleothem pools called Rimstone Pools
I'll go over




Observation of a very small terraced Speleothem up close

Commemorative photo at the large Speleothem pool


The cold water is the last here

The outside is a 30-degree hotspot, a mushi world
Let's keep it cool.

Cold water challenge A little screaming ww



Take a commemorative photo with me again with this explorer
Sam's up with two

It's a little bit, if you meet them all, brothers.

It's a kun pose ww

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



I could see Okinawa least horseshoe bat well.
Encountering rare creatures

Kuroiwa Kuroiwa's ground gecko, a natural monument in Okinawa Prefecture

I was able to observe closely at a fairly nonbili shop.

This time I was very lucky
If you go up the last ladder, it’s the earth.


( ゚Д゚)💦;

Are you super lucky?
I also met a giant gee

Spiders and goes during exploration ●A boy explorer who touched yellowtail with his bare hands
When I touched a giant gee, I was a little bit bubbed ww
Commemorative photo with all the friends who worked hard

Exploring clothes that have become heavy with fatigue and wet, and even this staircase. . . .
Adult explorers are heavy on foot
