Cave Diving

Page 20: Beauty of caverns
Page 21: Beauty of caverns

you need to be trained extensively before you go cave diving

when you're down there, you don't have the ability to come straight back up to the surface

if you don't have a light, there is zero light There are passages where you can get lost,

and you can stir up the bottom and not be able to see inches in front of your face
