Comment on Why do it
Jax@sh.itjust.works 9 months agoMaybe it’s because I live in a place with a lot of earthquakes, but I think I’m good off putting my head between rocks that could slightly shift and obliterate me.
But I’m glad you enjoy it!

The Appalachian foothills in Kentucky are pretty geologically dead; there aren’t any fault lines anywhere close by. It’s about as safe as any cave network can be.
I do recommend going to that are and taking some tours, especially in the middle of summer where you can see the inversion layer where the air goes from being 95F to 60F. Even the fully-accessible tours that don’t go through any tight spaces are pretty cool.

I don’t mind going inside caves, I just won’t be squishing myself into any crevices that require me to take off my safety gear to get through.
Granted, if it shifts your safety gear likely won’t do shit, but still. I’ll stay in the bit of the cave where I can stand, or at least crouch/crawl.
