Howdy!
I'm new to this board and relatively new to caving.
A few months back, a group of friends from my church decided to visit Buckner's near Bloomington, Indiana. I really had no idea what to expect. I had a cheap little belt with a bunch of zippered pouches on it, a hard hat, and a few flashlights. I had the time of my life! I must say that the crawl through the entrance was pretty grueling. And there was one spot where we crawled for what seemed like forever and there wasn't even enough space to lift our heads. It was such a rush!
This weekend we are heading to Sullivan's. I've got some new gear (army surplus belt with a bunch of alice-clipped magazine pouches) and a few other odds and ends. I can't wait.
That said, I'd like to be a little more prepared this time. We got a bit turned around in Buckner's and didn't always know where to go or what to look at.
Is there any information to be found on specific caves and the things to look for in them? Maybe maps? I'm having a really hard time finding this kind of stuff!
Nice to meet you all.
