    Default What cave is this?

    I found this video while surfing the net. About ten minutes into the video these spelunkers came across a double arrow line. I was wondering if anyone knew what cave this is?

    Why do I like cave diving? It's the one place where my kids can't follow me.

    The video description has your answer. It's Gator on the Millpond in Jackson Co. FL. This is from a few months ago when the pond level was drawn down, it's now back at full pond and the cave is no longer accesible without diving.

    Actually most of it is still accessible, just have to tread water! I was out there in Aprilish, lots of bats and good fun.

    The pond was down and you could access it like they did. You would probably have to swim back to the area the cave drops down and is completely submerged. It is a cool little sm cave. It goes back about 1000' or so and then splits into 2 lines. It is easy up to that T. After the T it gets small and unless you are super skilled you will have crappy viz coming out.

    I went in once solo. I turned at the t. It looked sketchy beyond that. The dudes im the video were annoying but it was cool to see what he cave dry. It looks very different
