Has anyone toured mammoth cave national park or any of the other caves in the Kentucky region?? Was planning to do the ranger led 6 hour tour of mammoth but my chest is too big (only up to 42" chest or hips) So I have to opt for another tour, if anyone has suggestions?? I want to get dirty not just walk on paths though. |

I haven't been to mammoth cave since I was maybe 12 years old and all we did was walk in for a few hours then walk out, had to carry our own flash lights etc.
See what other "off trail" tours they offer, even if shorter and piece together something from that. Otherwise goggle Kentucky caving grottos and see if you can get to correspond with email someone who will guide you. There are lots of caves in Kentucky, maybe another show cave near mammoth that you can get into.
If you want to get dirty make sure you have knee pads. Crawling over that sharp stone gets old even with blue jeans on. _________________ You can rest when you're dead |

WOW ...you gotta be way skinny... BTW Carlsbad offers one of those too...crawl in the dirt your nose a few inches from the "normally docile scorpion" _________________ Photos: http://www.pbase.com/desertgirl/galleries
