That’s what I want to know.
I KNOW that they backed in because of waters, BUT that doesn’t answer why they went in so far of a tiny cave, including they HAVE to have gone down and thru that tiny deepest passage to get that far! Nuts!
I don’t care that they’ve been in it before. If it is that much work to go back just to carve your name, you’re going too far and/or doing too much work. Very bad ROI.
I cannot even begin to fathom.
Just walking into a cave like that beyond the light is more than I can fathom.
I’ve been in two caves in my life and they were commercial operations.
One was Luray Caverns and the other was Carlsbad.
NOTHING like that.
Volunteer who is helping in the Rescue has stated:
“It is normal for the rural boys to visit the cave. It is their way of life. If they live in the city, they might go to shopping malls instead.”
