    Default Nickajack Caverns?

    Just came across an article on this cave system mentioned some very pretty sounding decoration and that the TVA flooded it back in the 60's. I was just wondering if anyone had ever heard of it or dove it, Forest?

    lol yeah, saw that. was more wondering if there was anyone around here that's dove many varied and odd places, has been around since the beginning of time, and even a penchant for making spinny things to put line on! (oh yeah, perhaps a beard too) anyone fit a description like that around here and maybe have some more info on this place?

    The TVA takes a dim view of anyone getting near the cave, much less diving it. FWIW, the viz in the lake is pretty crappy anyway.
