Recordist's notes
Recording of a small storm, with recorder placed in the very small hole of the entrance. We heard some deaf sounds, perhaps four or five, and thought : wow, it's seriously collapsing now somewhere in the underground mine. But, it was only thunder sounds reverberating in the tunnels. Just after the recording, a dam broke and an entiere river collapsed into the underground mine. It was terrific ! That's why on the spelunking map we had, there's a lake mentioned. No mystery, it's arriving each storm.
