    I've heard and seen vids of rocky horror....just haven't had a chance to visit MAdison, been blow on all my visits.

    Seriously looking forward to seeing that cave!

    Not really that bad, just that one spot really.

    Pretty section of cave and a small price to pay to get the the Courtyard and beyond!

    Many years ago it used to be fairly difficult the entire length,but years of square peg and round hole have changed that.

    Sure. But not 6 inches worth all the way around. But I get the point.

    Lots of things were different "many years ago"....

    If you ever talked to Wes Skiles when he first pushed this tunnel,to Guy Bryant who did a lot of exploration in the Courtyard,then 6" may not be a stretch (3" each side). My first dive in there was 1998,and compared to now this tunnel has reemed out a lot. Not complaining,just commenting.

    Too bad too. Was always fun to see the cornflakes,when the Insulation tunnel had a 6" deep layer, mounds of silt in the OG to Challenge traverse, good viz in Cathedral etc. Somethings are gone,and we will never see again,other things can be protected by awareness and carefullness.
