A big group! Some folks from the National Environmental Protection Agency and a conservation group. For me, it felt easier than when I went in the first time. But, I could see the strain on some of our new friends.

Neatest thing was a cool, little room of white crystals - Hecalites?

And, caving is tough. I lost my boots in this cave; the entire sole ripped off one of my boots!
