ʻAʻole ʻike ka hui ma hope i ka pōʻino e kū nei ma kahi ʻē aʻe o ke ana. I ka manawa i hoʻomaka ai ka hui o nā spelunkers e hoʻi i luna, haʻalele lākou iā Camp III ma hope a hele i Camp II; I ka hōʻea ʻana aku, ua loaʻa iā ia kahi memo pīhoihoi i heluhelu ʻia: "Ua make ʻo Yeager, e loaʻa kona kino ma ke kumu o ka pana 23m kokoke i Camp II."
Ua loaʻa ka ulia pōpilikia i ka lua kolossal i kapa ʻia ʻo Sistema Cheve, ma ka mokuʻāina ʻo Oaxaca, me 22.5 km o nā tunnels a me nā hale hōʻikeʻike, a me kahi kulu o 1,386 m lalo o ka honua. I kēia manawa ua hoʻonohonoho ʻo Cheve System i ka lua ma waena o nā ʻōnaehana hohonu loa o ka ʻāina, a ʻo ka ʻeiwa o ka honua. Ke ʻimi nei ʻo Christopher Yeager me kahi hui o ʻehā nāna, i ko lākou lā mua, i manaʻo ai e hōʻea i Camp II.
E kiʻi i laila, pono e iho i 32 kaula a me nā keʻa mahele, deviations, etc. Eia nō naʻe, ma kahi o, hoʻokahi kilomita o nā ala paʻakikī, me ka nui o ka wai mai nā kahawai ikaika. Ua hoʻomaka ʻo Yeager i lalo no kahi hoʻolei 23m, kahi e pono ai e hoʻololi i ka iho mai ke kaula i ke kaula.
ʻElima mau kilomita i loko o ka lua, a 830 m hohonu ka hohonu, ma ke keʻa huina a ʻelua wale nō kī ʻana ma mua o ka hōʻea ʻana i ka Camp II, ua hana hewa ʻo ia a hāʻule pololei i lalo o ka hohonu. ʻO ka manawa koke, ʻo Haberland, Brown a me Boted, hāʻawi iā ia i ka cardiopulmonary resuscitation; eia naʻe, makehewa ia. He ʻumikūmākahi mau lā ma hope o ka ulia, ua kanu ʻia ʻo Yeager i kahi ala nani, kokoke loa i kahi āna i hina ai. ʻO kahi pōhaku kēpau pōhaku e hōʻike ana i kona lua kupapaʻu.
Ua kono ʻia wau i kēia ʻōnaehana kupaianaha e kahi huakaʻi o nā cavers Polani mai ka hui Warzawski. ʻO ka pahuhopu nui e ʻimi i nā paukū hou i ka hohonu o ka lua, me kahi ʻano hoʻomohala kūlike i ko ʻEulopa. ʻO ia hoʻi, i ka hiki ʻana o ka wai i nā ana ma Polani i nā mahana subzero, ma kahi o ka hoʻomau ʻana e ʻauʻau i nā ala i kahe ʻia, hana lākou i nā ala a me nā hele i loko o nā paia o nā lua. Eia hou, i ka Cheve System, koi ʻia kēia ʻano maneuver i kekahi mau wahi kahi e nui ai ka wai.
Ma ka Lāpule ma 5:00 PM, ʻo Tomasz Pryjma, ʻo Jacek Wisniowski, ʻo Rajmund Kondratowicz, a ua komo wau i Cheve Cave me nā kilos o nā mea e hoʻouka i nā kaula i loko o ke ana a hoʻāʻo e loaʻa iā Camp II. Ua wikiwiki loa ka holomua, ʻoiai nā keakea a me nā maneuvers me kahi kiʻekiʻe o ka paʻakikī.
Hoʻomaopopo wau i ke ala nui i ʻike ʻia ʻo The Giant Staircase; ma waena o nā palaka nui a mākou i iho ai me ke kani a me ka hoʻomaha ʻole. ʻAʻole pau loa kēia ana hanohano; No ke keʻa iā ia, pono e lanakila i kahi ʻokoʻa i ke kiʻekiʻe ma mua o 200 m, a ke hōʻike nei i kahi hohonu hohonu 150 m hohonu. Ke iho nei ma kahi o 60 m, ʻike mākou i kahi kahawai e hana i kahi wailele lalo hohonu e hoʻohuli ana. Ma hope o ʻumikūmālua mau hola o ka hoʻoikaika mau, ua ʻike mākou ua lawe hewa mākou i ka ʻaoʻao; ʻo ia, aia mākou i kekahi o nā fork he nui i kēia ʻāpana o ka ʻōnaehana. Hoʻomaha iki mākou a ʻai. I kēlā lā ua iho mākou i kahi hohonu o 750 m. Ua hoʻi mākou i ka papa i ka hola 11:00 o ke kakahiaka. Pōʻakahi, a ma lalo o kahi lā mālamalama hiki mākou i ke kahua hoʻomoana.
Ma ka Pōʻalima, ma ka hola ʻumi i ka pō, ua hoʻi ʻo Maciek Adamski, ʻo Tomasz Gasdja a i loko o ke ana ua ʻoi aku ke kaumaha, no ka mea ua kau ʻia ke kaula uila a lawe mākou i nā mea liʻiliʻi ma ko mākou kua. He manawa pōkole loa kā mākou e kiʻi ai i Camp II. ʻO ka "lā" aʻe, ma 6:00 am, hoʻomaha mākou i loko o nā ʻeke moe, ʻeono kilomita mai ka puka komo a 830 m hohonu.
ʻO Tomz Pryjma, ʻo Jacek lāua ʻo Rajmund i komo i mua o mākou a e hoʻāʻo nei e ʻike i ke ala pōkole loa i lalo. Akā ua laki ʻole lākou, ʻaʻole hiki ke huli i kahi ala kūpono loa i lalo, a i ʻole Camp III. Ua kānalua wau i ka papa hou, no ka mea ua hiki mākou i kahi hohonu loa, a noi e noho ma Camp II, e hoʻomaha ai, a laila hoʻomau i kā mākou ʻimi. Ua ʻōlelo lākou ua maʻa mau lākou i ka hele wāwae i mau mile i ka hau ma mua o ke komo ʻana i nā ana, a ke puka lākou ua makemake lākou e hele wāwae i loko o nā mauna hau i nā ʻano koʻikoʻi a hiki i ko lākou kahua hoʻomoana. ʻAʻohe aʻu ala ʻē aʻe akā e hoʻopili hou me lākou, a ma ka 9 pm o ka Lāpule ua hōʻea mākou i kahi hoʻomoana.
Ua ikaika ke anuanu i kēlā pō, a ʻoi aku ka nui i ka wā e hemo ai ka hoʻohui PVC kūikawā, a me ka hoʻololi ʻana i nā lole maloʻo. No ka mea aia kēia ana i kekahi o nā wahi calcareous kiʻekiʻe loa o ka ʻāina, lanakila ke aniau alpine, keu hoʻi i kēia manawa o ka makahiki. I ʻelua mau manawa, ala aʻe koʻu keʻena keʻokeʻo a uhi ʻia i ka hau.
ʻO ka hope loa, ʻo Rajmund, ʻo Jacek, a ua komo hou wau i ke ana. Ua hōʻea koke mākou i Camp II, kahi i hoʻomaha ai no ʻeono mau hola. I ka lā aʻe ua hoʻomaka mākou i ka ʻimi no Camp III. ʻO ka mamao ma waena o kēia mau wahi hoʻomoana ma lalo o ka honua he ʻeono kilomita, a he mea pono e iho i nā kaula he 24, me ka hoʻohui ʻana i nā maneuvers kaula ma luna o ka wai.
Ma hope o ʻumikūmālima mau hola o ka hoʻomau hoʻomau a me ka wikiwiki, ua kūleʻa mākou. Ua hōʻea mākou i kahi hoʻomoana III a hoʻomau i kā mākou iho e ʻike i ke ala a hiki i ka terminal siphon. Ma kahi o 1,250 m mākou i lalo. I ko mākou hōʻea ʻana i kahi ala kahe, ua kū mākou i kekahi manawa, ʻaʻole makemake ʻo Jacek e hoʻomau no ka mea ʻaʻole ʻo ia i ʻike pehea e ʻauʻau maikaʻi ai. Eia naʻe, koi ʻo Rajmund e hele i mua, a ʻōlelo iaʻu e hele pū me ia. Ua loaʻa wau i nā kūlana kūikawā loa i nā ana, akā ʻaʻole au i ʻike i ka luhi loa e like me kēlā manawa; akā naʻe, ua hōʻeuʻeu kahi mea hiki ʻole ke wehewehe iaʻu e ʻae i ka pilikia.
ʻO ka hope loa, ua ʻauʻau ʻo Rajmund ma kēlā ala. Ke hau paʻa nei ka wai, akā ua ʻike mākou ʻaʻole nui ka tunnel e like me ka mea i hōʻike ʻia; Ma hope o ka ʻauʻau ʻana no kekahi mau mika, ua hiki iā mākou ke piʻi i kahi ala pali. Ua hoʻi mākou no Jacek, a hoʻomau ka ʻekolu o mākou, hui pū hou. Aia mākou i kahi ʻāpana paʻakikī o ka ʻōnaehana, kokoke loa i ke ala i kapa ʻia ʻo Wet Dreams, ma kahi o 140 m mai lalo. Nui ka pīhoihoi o kēia ʻāpana o ke ana e nā kahawai a me nā passageways me ka wai a me nā lālā i hana i nā kumuwaiwai cascading.
Ma waena o nā hoʻāʻo e ʻimi i ke ala kūpono i ka siphon hope loa, pono mākou e hele i ke awāwa e hilinaʻi ana i ko mākou kua i kekahi ʻaoʻao o ka paia, a ma kekahi ʻaoʻao, e hilinaʻi ana i nā wāwae ʻelua, me ka makaʻu nui o ka heʻe ʻana ma muli o ka mānoanoa o nā paia. Eia hou, ua loaʻa iā mākou he mau hola o ka holomua, no laila ʻaʻole i like ka pane o ko mākou mau mākala ma muli o ka luhi. ʻAʻohe a mākou koho ʻē aʻe, ʻoiai ʻaʻohe o mākou kaula e hōʻoia ai i kēlā manawa. Ua hoʻoholo mākou me nā lālā huakaʻi ʻē aʻe e piʻi mai ka lalo. Ma hope ua kū mākou ma kahi o ka pōhaku e hoʻohanohano ai iā Christopher Yeager. I kaʻu kākau ʻana i kēia ʻatikala, ua ʻike au ʻaʻole i kona kino ma laila. ʻO ka hope loa, ua hiki i kā mākou huakaʻi ke hana i ʻekolu mau hoʻouka kaua ma ka lua, i kahi manawa o 22 mau lā, me kahi ʻaoʻao palekana maikaʻi loa.
Ma hope ma Mexico City, ua aʻo mākou i kahi hui o nā cavers, alakaʻi ʻia e Bill Stone, e ʻimi ana i ka Pūnaewele Huautla, kikoʻī ma ka Sōtano de San Agustín kaulana, i ka wā i kū ai kekahi pōpilikia hou aʻe. ʻO ke kanaka Pelekane ʻo Ian Michael Rolland i nalowale i kona ola i kahi kahawai i hohonu i ka wai, ʻoi aku ma mua o 500 m ka lōʻihi, i ʻike ʻia ʻo "El Alacrán".
He pilikia diabetic ʻo Rolland a hemo mai ka bapetizo ʻana i ka wai. Eia naʻe, ʻo kāna hana nui, ua hoʻohui ʻia he 122 m ka hohonu i ka ʻōnaehana Huautla. I kahi ala i kēia manawa, noho hou ia i ka wahi mua ma ka papa inoa o nā ana hohonu o ka moku ʻAmelika, a ʻo ka lima o ka honua, me ka hohonu o 1,475 mau mika.
