Ever been spelunking?

Ah crap, I answered yes before I read the stipulation.

It was down in the Mayan Riviera, in a 'cenote'. You repel down and a little Mayan kid brings you an inner tube to float around on. Pretty neat.

 
randomly wandered into some caves in yosemite. it was really more of a hole made by a bunch of big rocks on top of one another, but still cool.
 
Found some caves hiking in MO with friends, of course we went in.

Didn't feel like getting lost or stuck so we didn't spend too much time inside.
 
Yep - went a few times with the caving club @ Virginia Tech.
The only one I remember by name was Pighole. You rapelled down into a sinkhole where farmers used to toss dead livestock (hence the name). They don't anymore, so no dead rotting corpses lying around. Was a very vertical cave - a few months later a guy died after falling down a shaft that scared the crap out of me when we crossed it.
 
"NFW are you going to get me into a hole in the ground until I'm DEAD!!"

Though I did go on a tour in one as a kid.
 
I used to wanna be a spelunker as a little kid.

I still find caves incredibly interesting, & if i am ever near one...you can be sure i'll be goin' explorining.

Nothing around here though sadly.

Yeah Mo. is great for caves.

I lived there several years myself.

Before that, Bedford Indiana. Limestone capitol of the world (or so they claim).

All in all, I've probably been in 8-10 different caves, and most of them un guided.

I miss them. Not much in the cave category around here. (Or.)

Lava tubes up in the cascades? Not quite the same I guess.
