- Water and food: You should bring water along because the water provided in the cave is not clean enough. It is up to your own plan that you can carry a suitable amount of water. Essential foods are fruits, synthetic protein, and processed foods. It is because this activity wastes as much energy as a trekking tour in Vietnam.
- Small bag: You should use a small bag to hold the most used stuff.

- In case of coping with obstacles that stop you from moving, just come back to avoid unworthy accidents. Do not go alone. Do not use old wires or ladders found in the cave.
Other Notes
You should write the most detailed plan, accurately record the location of the cave entrance, the direction you have followed, the point you have passed ... then clamped with the schedule. This will help the rescue team deploy a search plan faster if you get lost.
Of course, the following notes are just in case of emergency and in some bad expectations. However, it is better to be well-prepared for any situation to come.
