Once in a while.. But I work almost every weekend so it is not that easy and most of my friends have stopped caving or moved away..

Like what.. One of the guys found a camera left by a Korean tourist in a vertical cave once, I found a fisheye lens, get to see blind crawfish interesting formations.. Worked as one of the EMT's on the Tom and Huck film at a cave near Grant Alabama.. Actually Cathedral Caverns.. We helped with the electrical and lighting. I bandaged a couple skinned up hands during the shoot.

Just wondering if you found evidence of anyone from the past that may have left a mark of date they were there...

I was mainly into vertical caving, where you had to rappel in and climb back out. Not easily accessed..

I wouldn't want to do that now but would have when I was younger, I used to scale pit walls in an open pit mine to scale the loose muck down.

I don't like heights that well but feel save attached to a rope and dangling a couple hundred feet off the ground..

That never bothered me either, as long as you trust the rope and anchor you have it made...

I trusted my rope and it was only a couple of us who would pick our anchor and tie the rope.. Two of us took the ENT basic course available at Calhoun College. was certified for 3 years..
