Recordist's notes

We are exploring a flooded underground mine. In first, we cross a tunnel with few water (0:00 to 19:00 mn) and after we are going deep to the end of the mine with boats. It's a completely unknown place. The end is swimming in a deep cold 4 meters deep water, a quite dangerous activity. Because of harsh conditions, the recorder stopped recording. So unfortunately it's an incomplete recording.
