Cave Navigation Book

Who did you order it from? I tried ordering through IANTD CE but it doesn't want to work.

IANTD CE, no problems. But I paid with an EU bank account.

Btw I also found few debatable suggestions in the book - but I guess navigation rules are like a******, everybody has one

Why do we need 100 pages with specific instructions when "leave **** on the exit side" covers it? I'm not trolling now. I honestly think that if you need 100 pages the protocols can not be correct, what am I missing?

You can always find some edge cases, I find it useful to have diagrams and to be able to discuss what could be a good/bad approach.

I wonder how much of it comes from poor line planning. I remember someone describing their mine's lines. Near the entrance was a room with pillars where like two or three tunnels on each side connected together. And what they ended up was a mess of Tees, which seemed super complex for no reason.
