Dang, I was on the digging trip when Rebecca first squeezed through to peer down that pit -- I had such high hopes for that lead & had such a great time caving with her that day. This report closes a chapter on a favorite personal piece of caving history. Lost Pothole is a great cave. Still. I remember discovering that lead on the first survey trip with Andy Grubbs and Geoff Hoese so many years ago now -- it had burned a hole in my brain since then. In my fevered imagination, we'd break through into going stream passage some day.
Maybe I can use a photo trip as an excuse to go back one last time. > On Nov 23, 2013, at 11:02 PM, "Marvin and Lisa" <mlmil...@gvtc.com> wrote: > > After finding that the bottom of the pit had no leads, the team confirmed > that, indeed, the air was coming from the channel at the top.
