Some pictures from our Gua Kelam, Perlis trip.
The welcome at the entrance to the Gua Kelam.
The pitch black cave inspite the electrical lightings provided.
The natural oxygen supply cavern that explains
the ingenuity of earlier mining engineers.
Crystals in their early formation from the dissolution of the cave walls.
We'll have to wait another million years for the diamonds to materialise.
The fresh water harvesting spouts deep inside the cave,
another case of yesteryears' ingenuity.

to be our guide, further briefing us after our cave adventure.

(Banjaran Nakawan) holding the secrets of the caves.
Though one of the rangers offered me to try Gua Kelam despite it was yet to be reopened after the flood, I didn't dare to try after he cautioned me that it was dangerous due to it not being cleared of snakes. You are lucky to be able to enter the cave. I will just enjoy the cave thru your camera lens.

The fear of the mystic happenings outdid it all. Memang meremang dibuatnya. Siap ada sepasang 'penunggu' yang menyambut salam kami.
