For the May camp out meeting, DCG's very own Miki Manning is leading a trip to two caves, Bible Springs & Cedar Ridge Crystal Cave.
Both are horizontal caves.

The Plan:

  • Meet & Leave from Caver's Paradise at 09:30 AM EST.
  • Visit Cedar Ridge Crystal cave first, then go to Bible Springs.

What to expect:

  • Cedar Ridge is a small, short cave, and unusually hot for TAG, 
  • Bible Springs is a wet cave, dress appropriately!

What to wear and bring:

Choose a light top for Cedar Ridge, other wise you'll cook!

You need at least a neoprene wet suit top for Bible Springs!

  • Try to wear fast drying clothes. Synthetic fibers like polyester and nylon work best.
  • A helmet with mounted light and new/fresh batteries.
    • Helmets & lights are available for rent, contact Nancy Aulenbach or Jon Zetterberg ASAP.
  • Bring 6 brand new AA batteries if you're using rental helmets & headlamp.
  • Knee pads are a must and elbow pads are optional.
  • Textured gloves gloves:  cotton or leather are bad ideas.
  • Long pants and no shorts. 
  • An optional light, long-sleeved shirt to protect your arms is recommended.
  • A light day pack with:
    • Snacks: protein bars pack well. Put snacks in Ziploc bags to protect from getting wet.
    • Water (32oz) recommended.
    • Extra batteries for each light source protected by a water-resistant container
  • Good sturdy boots.
  • A large plastic bag to put your dirty wet clothes and boots in.
  • Clean Clothes for the ride home
