Mexico Cave Exploration Project - March 2009 update

Exploration efforts from Feb 25 to March 1 in the Ox Bel Ha cave system has led to the discovery of the most stunning cave passageways to date. In addition, while exploring a 60ft (18mts) canyon, the team located various large animal bones. So far this year, more than 18,000ft (6 kms) of new cave has been revealed in Ox Bel Ha.

After 11 years of exploration, the Ox Bel Ha cave system (Maya for "Three Path of Water") is still one of the most exciting exploration projects in Mexico.

Diving Team: Alex Alvarez, Fred Devos, Sam Meacham and Chris Le Maillot.

Special thanks to: Centro Investigador del Sistema Acuifero de Quintana Roo (CINDAQ), Zero Gravity Dive Center and Alltournative for organizing the logistics and the financing, to Ismael, Pedro and Marcelo for the man power, and to Global Underwater Explorers for continued support.
