While I would love to be able to take in a couple of hours long trips involving lots of crawling and climbing I'm not sure if I'm physicaly going to be up to it. Problems from a car collsion this past spring arn't being resolved nearly as quickly as I had hoped for and I will be a much happy person If I can at least get under ground once. I know there is Cedar Ridge Crystal, I've lost track of the number of times I have been in there. I know there are simular caves out there I just dont have easy access to any of my resources at the current time, just need something with a minial amout of bending. Nothing like trying to plan ahead
On Friday Graham and I are doing Bible Springs Cave with knottyknanna (Ginger), that's the one we stopped at last year after we did cedar ridge crystal, the one with the pipe coming out of it. And we figured we'd stop at whiteside on the way back since we drive past it, its by Lake Nickajack. You and Greg are welcome to come along. I'm a completely out of shape and just want to do easy stuff.
Casper, Visit the DCG tent at TAG Andy Zellner will have a list of directions and maps for any cave you wish to visit. He can also help with recommendations. Since he has literally been to every cave in TAG (proper usage here), he is an excellent source of information. Welcome to the Cave-In and we hope you have a great time.

Found this neat little dohicky while doing some research for work, Coleman green key tool

I know aluminum cans and plastic bottles are collected for recycling at the Cave In. Any one know if the recycler that these end up at would be willing to take the little green propane canisters if the green key tool were installed in them? I know the scrap steel usually brings more than aluminum if sold. I'm not sure how many would be disposed of over the weekend, but I would be willing to donate some of the green key tools if it would keep some of the bottles out of the landfill.

Bible Springs is going to be pretty wet isn't it? It's been 8-9 years since I have been in that one. I dont mean to sound like a baby but I have no desire to deal with slogging though much mud. Plus with the rain projected for the weekend I'm a bit leary of going in anything with a sping in it. Has all this rain effected the lake level much? I'm not sure how much came down that far North.
