Howdy family! Have you ever wanted to go spelunking but were unsure how to find an optimal cave, were worried about getting lost, didn't have gear, etc.? Well not to worry! Join Major Tom and the UGA Outdoor Recreation Program as we explore a cave in the southeast. Caves in the southeast are perfect for experienced spelunkers and beginners alike. They offer large caverns and crouching corridors. Beautiful formations and remnants of the past. Have you ever experienced total darkness? Have you ever sung at the bottom of a waterfall? Have you ever seen a cave tree? You can, and lots more on this trip! Prepare to get muddy on this fantastic day trip. See you soon! Exploring caves in the southeast requires some class 3 scrambling, crawling, and lots of mud. Groups are usually in the cave 4 hours or more depending on pace.
