Hey there!
I'll start off by introducing myself! My name's Cory and I'm very new to caving. I've been out here in Colorado for about 5 years now and I think I'd like to get into this hobby.
Last year a friend and I climbed up Marble mountain looking for Spanish Cave. With no trail or coordinates we found the entrance with the help of a photo of the limestone formation with a small circle indicating its location. I had read everything written on this cave and was originally attracted to it for the legends and folklore that surrounds.
Since then I have been fascinated with the entire experience and have gained a hunger for more adventures of the kind.
Everything about this hobby is attractive to me: the secrecy, the stories, the adventure, the preservation and the camaraderie of fellow cavers. I feel drawn.
Anyways, I'm happy to be in this group! And I hope I can get some useful pointers on getting started here in this great state!
Thanks!
-Cory
