Add comments on the entrances page

This year we are planning researches in the perspective regions of the Turkestan Range located in the south-west of Kyrgyzstan and associated with the Pamir-Alai Mountain system. For the time being those regions are insufficiently explored and that provides good opportunity for the wide search of caves. Besides, there i...
