Surprised silence, Askinskaja for them is a tourist cave where you can not do any speleological exploration. And in fact, they asked us why we had come here to this cave.
"Askinskaja contains what, reasonably, is the largest underground glacier in the world. The fact that it is made of very large crystals indicates that is very ancient. Everything is finished in there, was trapped and preserved in a perfect way. And it is still there, just below the surface studded with odd shapes that perhaps echoing the archives below. That's not just a glacier, is an immense library of the past of these areas, countless books, accumulated, that so far no one has opened. And you ask us why we have traveled so far to see it? We have come so far to let people know of the existence of this library and its books uncut".
