Greetings,

Kendall Morris will be leading a trip to Howards Waterfall on Saturday.

This is a clean up trip.  A lot of trash tends to pile up at the front of this cave, and in the cave. You will be helping clean up this area, and do some caving when you are done. 

This is a beginner suitable horizontal trip. Prepare for a trip of crawling,stooping, and some borehole passage. This cave certainly has some pretties towards the back :)

This is a great chance to contribute to the caving community in a good way, and have some fun in the process.

Access to this cave requires you to have an SCCI Permit. As always leave no trace. If you see trash in or outside the cave, please put it in your pack and bring it out to dispose of it properly so that others may continue to enjoy the cave.


Registration for this event requires that you sign an SCCI Permit. Failure to do so will result in your registration being canceled. You can click here to sign the permit.

We will meet at the parking lot for the cave 10am EST.

Address : 1728 Back Valley Rd # 264, Trenton, GA 30752-4641

DCG ALWAYS uses Eastern Timezone, even if the event is in a different timezone. Cell phones will jump to the Central Timezone while you are still in the Eastern Timezone when they get close to the tower, so be aware of this so you don't show up an hour late wondering where everyone is. They are probably already caving!

To join, you will need to bring:

  • A helmet with mounted light and new/fresh batteries (recommend backup headlamps)
  • Spare batteries for your light
  • Gloves
  • Kneepads
  • Sturdy boots/shoes
  • Lunch/snacks for eating in the cave
  • Water(suggest around a liter/person)
  • Extra layer (suggest a light jacket/sweatshirt)
  • Backpack to carry your gear so your hands will be free to move in the cave
  • Any medicine you need (please let us know of ANY conditions you have!)
  • Bring some trash bags if you can to help out!

I highly suggest bringing a change of clothes/shoes for when you exit the cave (to keep your car clean) and a bag to put your dirty clothes in after you change. A towel helps, too.

If you have any questions, Reach out to Kendall Morris on Facebook or his cell (404-956-5361) for details or questions..
