Thams and more Thams

An half hours walk East of Muang Ngoi are several caves, out of the larger of which flows a sizable creek.

With my trusty headlamp, I gave the first cave a good go. I explored about 300 meters, without getting too crazy. Without real gear, this was as far as I cared to go solo. There are multiple chambers and levels, and always the sound of the creek. According to a Dutchman who has probed the creek run, the two caves are connected and it is possible to transit from one entrance to another.

Much as I was tempted, I will have to take his word for it for now.
