An Alberta-based explorer who was trapped in a partly flooded cave for days says her heart goes out to the members of a boys’ soccer team as they await rescue from an underground cavern in Thailand. Kathleen Graham, president of the Alberta Speleological Society, said she remembers “pure relief” washing over her as she emerged from the darkness of Mexico’s Sistema Huautla in April. Unlike the group of a dozen boys and their soccer coach who went missing on June 23 when flooding trapped them in a cave in northern Thailand, Graham said her team had supplies on hand. It helped sustain them through the four days they were stranded after torrential rains blocked their exit route.
