Friday the 23rd is a school holiday (???) so I'm trying to see if there's any reason for me to go up early - maybe do something in Atlanta - and camp Friday night. Is anybody planning to camp?

What school holiday? We aren't off then. I might go up and camp, if anyone else is going to.Quote:

I do love those GA caves!
I have a previous engagement in a FL cave, but I would like to see this become an annual event. Sounds like a blast, hope you guys have a great time. Maybe next year. I'm trying Forrest, but I just cant seem to get in dem northern caves. Still dying to get into that Mid Tenn cave you've been telling me about. Maybe one day.
Hmmm...cavers gather in GA, and the GA caver goes to FL? :smt102 :smt079Quote:

Obligations!!!! ;)
We went by Craig's Mill this weekend. I spoke to the landowner, and he said the big flood last month didn't get far out of the banks of the creek. It did cause the water level in the sink to rise several feet. It has dropped back down some, but is still pretty high. I suspect 32% will be to high for the back part of the cave. You will probably hit over 110' at the back fo the cave. The visibility is still pretty good, but it is still raining, so I "think" it will be over 20' by Oct 24. It could be more, if it doesn't rain that week.
Thanks for the update Forest!
