well our trip to the other TN cave that HR3,G2 is working on taped another 874 ft yesterday leaving us standing at 11233.6 until next trip, this is approx 3 1/2 x' original data  and we still aren't done yet, and if any one is interested in helping with the next leg give a holler, its a fun little passage named "torture chamber / hell hole" I estimate this run alone will add another 300+ ft to the map and there is more beyond it, had a good time taking pictures with the roebucks at another cave in the area, even though they were having lighting issues, " hope at least a couple of your shots turned out good" more on this and "cant wait......." so tune in next time same bull time, same bull channel |

had a good time taking pictures with the roebucks at another cave in the area, even though they were having lighting issues, hope at least a couple of your shots turned out good In the first cave the problem was the camera was set to the wrong iso setting. [That was a DUH!  ] So they burned out and no descent photo's were made. But I have a heck of a bruised backside from that fall. Between cave #1 and Cave #2 we realized the problem and corrected the iso setting, etc. So we were having a very productive day taking cave photo's -- well that was until the 'tiki torch tribe' complete with candles arrived. We were a bit concerned about smoke inhalation so we packed up our gear and routed. Later we heard Bull talked with these folks and even invited them to learn how to cave safely.  Anyway, I uploaded a couple of photo's to Flickr this morning. The link is in this thread Caving Photos Online |

sorry folks but I just found an error in data and realized it was set up in meters not feet, so the length now sets at 3,424, ft putting your settings on the mode sure places things differently,
when I took a second look at it I knew something was wrong , but were rightious now, sorry to cause unnecessary excitement

I was wondering how there was that much cave.
Hey Bull we are going to possible do Troupe Cave tomorrow.
I will see if there is room for one more caver if you want.
