Lake of the Dahlias somewhere beyond P1010079, originally uploaded by Mic2006. Here it is – over the hump. I pressed through this low slot and on to the passage beyond – an elliptical tunnel that wound off into gloom. Its hard to imagine but somewhere further on the helictites become so dense and interwoven that [...]

There is lots more to see IMG_4684, originally uploaded by Mic2006. I had been carefully picking my way through the dust and breakdown in the upper level of an obscure cave in Ontario’s marble. The marble forms in bands of especially pure white rock in this area; it is very hard and sharp – thus [...]

A calculation of risk and reward. Why do I obsess over stuff like this? IMG_8240, originally uploaded by Mic2006. Here is a tunnel – a crawling tunnel that had once been half filled with water. It is possible to wriggle through here without touching the roof but my concern would be, how safe is it? [...]

This is caving in Ontario Caving in Ontario – Sanctum of the Bruce! It is what you might call a rather challenging mental problem – an exercise in self control – sensory deprivation. What is it about pushing the boundaries that is so appealing? Physically – oh there’s no problem there. I will fit. [...]

Be careful – Ontario caves IMG_8233, originally uploaded by Mic2006. Just a word (2) to would-be cavers – “airborne pathogens!” I suppose I suspected the worst at my very first breath.
