Come along with us as we go back out to our project cave in Franklin County, Tennessee where the landowner dug open the entrance with a track ho. We visited this property first back in May and had explored some known caves and even starting digging on a good blowing lead. One of the caves that we were not able to get into that day was a spring cave. It was pushing out a lot of water the day we were there and had since dried up. Given the opportunity, the landowner used a track hoe to dig it out for so we could easily get into it to explore. After our initial exploration, we did go back and start a survey of the cave.
On this day, we decided to go back to pick up where we left off with our survey but unfortunately due to the rains we had two weeks prior from Hurricane Helene it has left the entrance to the cave sumped. We made it about 25 feet into the cave and realized the water levels were just too high and impassable. We are hoping in a few weeks the water will have come down enough to let us back in as this area is basically just pooled water that needs to drain.
