I'm an old school off-the-radar caver looking to get back into the fun. My old caving buddies moved away, got lazy and lame, etc.
I have the rope and gear and experience to get into Ellison's and lead a through-trip. I am NOT offering a "guided" (hold your hand) trip. I am offering to allow you to ride my 600-foot rope, and my knowledge of the route and logistics. YOU must be experienced enough to make it out without my help in an emergency. I do offer advice on using a ropewalker system, and have a bit of extra gear to share, if you already have a frog system that you are experienced with.
There are other caves in the area that I would like to see again, and folks that demonstrate the dedication and skills will be welcome to join me on trips to those.
Reply here and I'll post a link to contact me.
Lets go see the crystals!
