Cemetery Pit - Need rope back

Postby cavehunter » Oct 14, 2015 5:53 am

Meet some great people on Fox Mountain during TAG Fall Cave-In on Saturday, October 11. Left a rope at Earl's Ledge (150' PMI rope) in the cave so another team could pull it out and return it. I was staying near Sewanee Mountain Grotto at the Cave-In but communication must have got crossed and the rope was never returned. I just wanted to put out some contact information so that the rope could get back to me. PM me if you know the rope whereabouts.
Cheers,
Scott Hurley

you should also post this on TAGnet. Also, Sewanee Mountain Grotto has a Facebook site that you could try too.
Hope you get your rope back.

I remember a group of guys coming over to our (Sewanee Mountain Grotto) camping area and asking for a guy named Scott.... Problem is, none of us know who you are so we told them we had no idea who you were.

If you are on Facebook, you might want to try posting in the Caver's Lost & Found page:

I believe a member of the FSS has your rope, she contacted River City Grotto to see if it was any of ours. Search for River City Grotto on Facebook and it should be on of the first posts. If your not on fb send me your number and I'll get you in touch with them

I was one of the people in Cemetery. Trust me, we spent a LOT of time walking the site asking any body under the sun where you guys were - (do you know where Hector and Scott are? You from Florida?"). Became very acquainted with the lay of the land there with FSS, Sewanee, and Huntsville! Met a lot of Florida people, just not you! Sunday we finally gave it (and webbing and biner) to a woman from FSS who knew you and could get it back to you. I am not sure of her name. But you will be getting it back.
