More than 220 rescue operation officials will camp on top of the mountain above the Tham Luang cave in Chiang Rai to seek shafts that may offer possible exit options for the trapped 12 footballers and their coach.


Kamolchai Kotcha, director of the 15th conservation areas management office, said the operation decided to have officials stay overnight on top of the mountain so that their search for shafts would not be slowed down.

 

They would be supported by other teams to carry foods supplies and tools for them, Kamolchai said.

 

The campsite would be above the Nuen Nom Sao area where the 13 footballers were trapped, Kamolchai added.

 

He said park officials, forestry officials and officials from the Chiang Rai Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Office would also search for possible ways to prevent water from flowing into the cave.

Will camp on the mountain or have been camping on the mountain? IMO it is a bit late in the day to start seeking shafts now.

 

Rather confusing article/wording as I have understood they have been looking from day 3 of this.

Is it not possible to ignite coloured flares in safe part of cave and watch and wait above for evidence ?

Unless there is positive pressure, air coming into the cave, the smoke wont go anywhere. It will rise until it cools then go nowhere.
