The Pit and The Blue Abyss

The Pit and Blue Abyss are one of the few places dropping deep (70m – 110m) and allowing exploring lower levels of caves. At that depth diver is diving in salt water and the salt water would lead to a significant amount of rock corrosion. With two caves in close proximity to each other (about 500 m) one can conclude that they may drop into the same deep collector.
 
Really enjoyable article -- I love the author's tone. I had watched the video of him passing the restriction when it was first up. I was then, and remain, absolutely in awe of the preparation and courage that went into getting through there!
