Hey hey, itโs caving season again!!
The plan: Imma be driving down to Bungonia late (leaving Sydney around 10pm) Saturday the 11th. But you do you.ย We will be starting the cave early-ish Sunday the 12th. Early like 9 or 10am. Expecting it to take around 8-10 hours, depending onb how fast we move/how far we get
Includes such features as: 8 hours of wiggling (too low to crawl), huge caverns (you can sit upright in some of them), sketchy down (then up) climbs, a couple of tight squeezes, black water to wade through, potential bad air, and, most importantly, (allegedly) AN ORANGE LAKE at the end

Clothes to wear under cave suits (I usually go for just a t-shirt and leggings, BUT I have heard rumours that at the very end of this cave there is some NASTY blackish water to like wade through, so maybe like bring a thermal top/underwear as well, but up to you)

- Knee/elbow pads (OPTIONAL but we’ll be crawling like forever so…)
