Flowstone in right-hand loop, first entrance Looking toward first room by main entrance Skull Trash and rotten wood from its days as a show cave (and later) make the entrance hazardous Looking out you can see some plywood outside the cave... drop in the bucket

Icy weather made going in and out even more tricky Entrance formation Looking out of the first cave and into the second... like the other, it's full of trash and broken building The same Crystal growth in a stalactite

More formations, in a wild section of the cave We slid into a tight little space with dry, gravely stream passage to get to a dig Corey was interested in It was full of water... Corey seemed pretty disappointed So, smartass that I am, I pointed out a foot-wide hole in the floor with gravel in the bottom and suggested he dig there Of course it worked.... you can see some flowstone once some of the dirt and rocks were pulled out

Corey got in up to about his waist, and rocks tumbled in farther... we'll be back!
