June 3, 2010: The difficulties encountered in attempts to connect to the system Xunaan Ha make us give up at the moment, also forcing a restriction leads us to discover another cenote connected with cenote Renzo, which makes it a system in effect.
Currently, the total amount of surveyed passageways is 705 feet by previous explorations and 2671 feet explored by Alessandro Reato.

July 24, 2010: The goal is to continue north and look for another possible flow from the west, where Hol Kin section exist, but all the passageways toward the northwest end in unstable bedding plane. 584 feet are added.

July 25, 2010: continues the resurvey of an existing line (338 feet) and are explored other 1129 feet to the north. The last line is dedicated to Wes Skiles, who died recently during a dive.
Again, all passageways towards the West end in bedding planes.

July 28, 2010: Are  collected the datas of the last existing line (151 feet); can not understand why they don't have continued the exploration, as there is an obvious continuation of the cave at the end of the line.
The bedding plane to west implements its threats with the collapse of some rocks ...
958 feet are added.

July 30, 2010: Are explored a couple of shortcuts to restrictions, and we continue north to arrive in a room of about twenty meters wide. Unfortunately, this also ends in a bedding plane without flow.
974 feet are added and  still to check out some side passageways.

August 15, 2010: Unfortunately, a duit that seemed very promising joins again with the area of the northern beedding plane.
Is explored a passageway to North-East, over a restriction, which leads on top of a collapse.
Currently, the system includes 8297 feet of surveyed caves.

September 8, 2010: The cave really wants to go north. Are added 2019 feet of new explored passages, but at the extreme north seems to have no other options to continue.
Over a
restriction is explored a room that goes from the surface in a dry cave to the maximum depth of the cave system (19.8 m).

October 14, 2010: In a further attempt to connect to the system Xunaan Ha are reviewed every line in the south end of the system and from one of those the exploration is extended for more 178 feet.

The difficulty in progressing is due to the reduced size of the passageways and the visibility drops to zero within seconds.
