Another view of the calcified decorations in this most secret cave (By Corneile SQS). As you can see the rock is this fantastic bleached white colour. Imagine the havoc of tourist traffic. Many are unaware that aside from their aesthetic appeal cave formations also preserve within their chalky bones carbon and oxygen isotopic records – vital clues as to the climate over the past several thousand years.
