Hidden Earth 2024
Mulu, the longer journey to Benarat
45 minute Lecture|Tim Allen
Abstract
This is the story of a pre covid and post covid expedition to Gunung Benarat, Mulu. Benarat is the most northerly limestone mountain in the National Park and much more remote than other recent expeditions. It is tough but rewarding caving. Across the two trips there was success and failure, highs and lows, accidents and illness, and bugs the size of your arm. Short films, stunning photographs from Mark Burkey and others. An Utterly Unmissable tale to tell!
