Description
Have you gone caving and discovered a passion for it? Go join the VPI Cave Club! But also, come join us for a delve into the expansive New River Cave! This trip is only open to individuals who've either been caving with us before or who message me to make their case. No ropework required, but I don't want this to be anyone's first trip since there is more verticality than within Tawney's Cave and no halfway break in the sunlight. Any caving gear you bring (especially if it's from Tawney's on Oct. 13) needs to be washed beforehand! Email me any questions you have; I will be in contact with more details for attendees.
Location
New River Cave, Giles County
What You Should Bring
Bring shoes with good tread that are either waterproof or can get wet in the stream walk, tough pants and long sleeves that can get very muddy, and water. Low-quality helmets, gloves, and headlamps are available for borrowing, but bringing your own is highly preferred.
