¡Empaten Turner Sink con Wakulla Springs!
Wakulla-Turner connection. Semeya: WKPP.
A la fin, el WKPP, tres de 17 años d'esploraciones, fueron quién pa empatar el sistema de Leon Sinks cola surdencia de Wakulla. Esta vegada, los esploradores entraron per Turner Sink, y a una distancia de 11.200 pies dende la entrada, atoparon nuna galería lateral el final de la llinia de vida dexada el mes anterior cuando, entrando dende Wakulla, percorrieron 24.000 pies.
En total, la travesía ente Turner y Wakulla son casi 7 milles (más de 11 km), de percorríu soterrañu somorguiáu a una fondura media de 80-90m.
Nesti vidiu puede vese'l momento la xunión, cuando atopen el final de la llinia dexada el mes pasáu, ¡y la flecha azul apuntando a la entrada de Wakulla!.
