Notice the guy rapelling off the rope near the center of the image.
Imagine rapelling into that abyss in total darkness.

Pretty good. Drops of 200ft are not common, and single hangs
much longer start to get annoyingly bouncy when you're getting started
up. Looks like a fun guy.

Cave diving isn't so bad. Good fun. Scary, but good. Hmmm,
reading that, it must be a long time since I went for a bubble. I
stopped diving in 1993.

Any particular reason, or just too busy? By the wy, I've gotten a job
prospect to do some geochemical sampling for an oil company. If I get the
job, I'll be collecting samples in Montana (on the Blackfoot Indian
reservation near Glacier National Park) and in South Texas. Like you (I
think), I'll be working 10 days and off 20. They pay travel all expenses.
I haven't had a formal interview yet, but did talk with the one of the
principles today. Don't know what the pay will be, be considering the
harsh extremes of climates involved, and all the travel time, it had
better be worth it. Wish me luck.

Work! ..a bit shortsighted .. what about this group???
Well, slip and break something - as we say
