On June 18th, EKPP pushed the limits of the Gourneyrou cave, located in the Hérault mountain range near Nimes, for 280 meters at their first try. Not only the access to the cave is one of the most difficult, but also the cave profile is more than challenging: down to 85 m, up to 17 m, back down to 85 m, up to 29 m and down to 93 m.

A roller coaster could not be worse. However, despite tons of bloodsucking mosquitoes and temperatures of more than 35 C / 95 F, a team of 9 dedicated divers managed to get it done in only two days.
