Duncan Collis and Erin Lynch walk through a section of cave in San Wang Dong called The Sea of Tranquility. Here remains of old Nitrate mining cover the floor in forms of harths - pits and unwanted spoil.

How was a cave previously used for mining considered undiscovered?

They discovered it in the sense Columbus discovered America.

When the breakthrough expedition connecting a vast array of passages (can’t remember the name of the system) to Mammoth Cave took place, the spelunkers were literally miles from either entrance.

They discovered a foot print, not a boot print but a foot print.

Just think, Columbus discovered America, the resident Indians certainly didn’t know about it. Sure.

I don’t believe these are the first humans to go in there, but it’s still pretty darn cool. Thanks for the post.
