I'm looking for a few suggestions. I'm going back to my old hometown of Pikeville, TN this September for a week or two, and I need some new caves. We used to take a big romp through Camps Gulf and see Virgin Falls and Rice and a few others around Sparta, but I believe all of these are now technically off limits (correct that if I'm wrong).
I never got to do much caving in the area when I lived there because I was very young, so I don't know any of the classics beyond the ones mentioned. We normally roll into an area and start looking and asking until we're underground, but that's not the always the most efficient way. I'm looking for one vertical cave (that can be done with two 60m ropes or less) and three or four horizontal. Any reccomendations would be appreciated. We'll be staying at Fall Creek Falls most of the time, so something not horribly far from there would be preferred, though if there just isn't much within an hour of there, we'll pull up camp and go elsewhere.
Thanks
