Deep Caves

Found this fascinating. Heard this report on NPR, then followed the story on National Geographic's website. Here is the National Geographic link: http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/0505/feature4/multimedia.html

Check out the pictures... I can't imagine diving in lakes 6000 feet underground hoping to find another way out to just go deeper. Or turning out the lights and it being THAT dark. Or not being unable to stand up crawling and descending through holes that are only big enough to squeeze through.

Now we explored Ruby Falls...
From Ruby Falls

It was completely amazing to be in that cave, but these supercaves... gosh that is incredible.
