Pictorial blogs on some of the interesting caves I have visited around Southeast Asia. On some blogs I have included photos taken over the years.
Although this blog was only born in 2011, I have now included older posts from my Multiply blog which closed in March 2013. This includes articles I have written. I am now also adding news relating to caves I have a particular interest in.

Quarrying of Bukit Sagu & Bukit Tenggek, Pahang 2016
I first blogged about the quarrying of Bukit Sagu & Bukit Tenggek in Pahang in August 2014. The hills are being quarried by YTL. This quarrying is resulting in the extinction of some rare endemic snails.
