On Sunday afternoon I took a group of 6 into Tawney's cave, located at the bottom of Mountain Lake Road. We all met in front of the rec. office and made our way down to Tawney's which only takes about 15 minutes to get down to the bottom of the mountain. We all met at the "bat ranch" to fit our helmets and get all of the gear together. Everyone in the group was very excited about going into a wild cave, this was the first time that anyone in the group had been into a cave and by the end of the trip it seemed like they could have spent the whole day underground. One young girl in particular immediately fell in love with caves, she was off exploring on her own and it was really cool to see this young girl experiencing something new and really enjoying herself. We were in the cave for about an hour and half and by the time we made our way to the twilight zone to come out, the entire group was blown away with how much fun they had underneath the surface. This was the first caving trip that the Mountain Lake recreation gang ran and hopefully we can get more people to sign up for our great off-mountain trips.
