Land of Enchantment -- not so great for cave diving, but mighty scenic!
My pick also at this point even with the trouble to get in and out. Want to go there to do some more photos with a nicer camera.

Are they doing something at Buford to make it easier to get to? You guys keep talking about it getting raped. I've never done it because I can't convince myself to play in the swamp.

All this internet discussion causes more people to visit it, as a result, more damage to the cave. FWIW, it is worse when it is on an OW forum. That attracts un-trained "cavern" divers.
Yep your right Forrest. That is why I don't post trip reports etc...it keeps the pristine places pristine. I recall someone posting something about a particular tunnel,and in 2 weeks there were marks than i could count.

I did the buford walk in flip flops once. it's not so bad :P
In some instances, those marks you see in tunnels "posted" were from shovels and not divers... (you know which tunnel I speak of...)

I hope access doesn't improve to Buford, it being hard to get to is one of the things that's keeping it pristine. Got to be at least a little bit dedicated to do it.
