La Mescla to the north of Nice France. Couple hundred yards of running down a highway with gear. Then dry caving another couple hundred yards. Including crossing a 60' drop on a piece of railroad rail. Then crawling on your knees across jagged rocks to cross the first sump. Did it three times, that was enough.
Fontanazzi, north east Italy. Climb down a hill, then an extension ladder. Gear up in boulders and rocks in a small pool. Then dive into the cave next to WWII ordinance that was dumped there at the end of the war. There is a hand grenade in the entrance just below where you gear up.
Sure there are other more nasty places, but I'd venture to say none of them are in Florida.

For all that work there had better be naked women and a buffet when you get to the cave.Originally Posted by caverkevin
Whoever said money can't buy love never bought a puppy.
I vote a buffet of naked women.
Anywhere in North Central Florida during hunting season.

Politics make some of the Florida caves damn hard to enter.

I can't base this on personal experience, but having talked to other cavers who HAVE been there,
I would have to vote for Weeki Wachee.
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
I was there last week. Took me two attempts just to get down into the cavern. No way was I gonna make it past 70 feet.
