March 4, 2006 - Collins Gulf
|
10-mile hike into Collins Gulf. This was my fifth trip to the very bottom of Collins Gulf. |
|
 |
 |
| Fall Creek disappearing into a cave. At this point,
I've dropped about 500 feet in elevation.
|
Coming up on Schwoon Cave. This is only the second time
I've taken the short side trail up to Schwoon Cave and Spring.

| Inside Schwoon Cave. I took a flashlight and went inside about 30 feet or so. | |

| Cator Savage Cabin
OK, technically this cabin is not in Collins Gulf, but it's less than a mile from the Collins Gulf Trail. This is only the second time I've been here also. |

Every drop of water in the Collins Gulf goes underground, sometimes it just decides to pour out of the side of the mountain, just to go right back underground. |
