Description:

Ssmall burial chamber with some Mayan finger bones on a low stone altar. There was an abundance of fossilized stal on rock overhangs.

A large silt floored chamber led to a mud slope, which was too steep to descend without a rope.

A continuation couldn't be ruled out without another visit with equipment, but it didn't look too promising
