Desert Diving: Exploring Ain Hith.

Erik Bjurström wrote an interesting narrative about exploring the underground lake of Ain Hith, Saudi Arabia:

In an instant all visibility had gone. We were left groping in a milky soup. There was no way of judging direction. Only the rope leading upwards, white in the torch-beam, offered a chance of returning safely...
