+jamrasc Posted November 16, 2005 Posted November 16, 2005 I am looking for a cache in or near a cave or tunnel in either NC or SC that we haven't done. Anyone know of any caves around? Quote
+gpsfun Posted November 16, 2005 Posted November 16, 2005 There is an interesting tunnel near this virtual cache. You will also find several picnic tables and a nice waterfall within walking distance. Check the photos on some of the logs. Quote
+jamrasc Posted November 16, 2005 Author Posted November 16, 2005 Great, thanks, now I need to plan a roadtrip! Love your avitar, btw. Larry is the best! Quote
+DavidMac Posted November 16, 2005 Posted November 16, 2005 Here's another virtual at a tunnel; this one's in the Smoky Mountains NP: Welcome to Nowhere by Orthoguy and Adventurechick It's part of a road along the south end of the park that was never completed. You have to walk all the way through to the other side to find the answer. There are also a number of very nice trails in the area if you're up for a hike. Quote
+wimseyguy Posted November 16, 2005 Posted November 16, 2005 Tunnel Vision is just a pedestrian/bike one, but it's a great hide and there are hundreds of caches of all types nearby too. Quote
+jon & miki Posted November 16, 2005 Posted November 16, 2005 (edited) Tube Torcher is down right now, but from what I hear and read about it, it might meet your criteria and should be a lot of fun. It's been on our radar for a while now, but we need to get together with a few friends and make an expedition of it. Edited November 16, 2005 by jon & miki Quote
+jamrasc Posted November 16, 2005 Author Posted November 16, 2005 I've been watching Tube Torcher and want to do it when and if it comes back up. Quote
+OzGuff Posted November 16, 2005 Posted November 16, 2005 The Devil's Cauldron is just off of the Blue Ridge Parkway south of Waynesville. The caves aren't all that extensive but it was pretty cool! Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted November 17, 2005 Posted November 17, 2005 Tunnel Vision is just a pedestrian/bike one, but it's a great hide and there are hundreds of caches of all types nearby too. FYI: This one won't qualify. I already asked. Quote
+tands Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 OK, how much tunnel do you want? In my preparing a new one, I need to know how far in folks will go and how small is too small? In particular, I know you jamrasc, so do you want me to surprise you or you can tell me your preference. - T of TandS Quote
+jamrasc Posted November 18, 2005 Author Posted November 18, 2005 Hey T, We are just looking for anything in or near a cave or tunnel, no pedestrian tunnels, like at harbison. It is for the coin quest game. As far as how far I'd have to go in, it would depend if "J" was with us, if we had the girls, a variety of factors. If I have all 3 girls by myself, we probably wouldn't go in the cave at all, too risky with my babies. Look forward to your new one, they are always good. Quote

Have you done the virtual cache that's near where the SC Wanna Go was just held? That's a huge tunnel. Quote
+jamrasc Posted November 20, 2005 Author Posted November 20, 2005 I haven't, but we found a small cave yesterday while out on a massive hike doing a cache. Quote
4wheelin_fool Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 At this cache http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...50-f136eacfd327 there are several small caves. In one spot is a tunnel about 20 feet long and open on both ends. One end you have to drop down into, and the other is some 15 feet off the ground. In the middle is a crevice which seems to go nowhere, but at the end it turns left into a small room which seems like a dead end, but on the way out there is another crevice branching off which goes some 80 feet in a maze before exiting out a small hole less that 2 feet high almost above the initial entrance. Its just outside of Highands, NC. which is minutes from both SC and GA. If you like caves - GO! Quote
