Phantom Springs

Karst Underwater Research  |  West Texas, US  |  2024 and ongoing

Phantom Springs is the deepest known underwater cave in the US, reaching 170 metres (558 feet) in the Chihuahuan Desert of West Texas. Since 2024, I have been documenting the ongoing exploration of the cave with members of Florida's Karst Underwater Research team. The team returns to the cave in December 2026.
