What's New
| The cabin decorations leave no doubt as to why we are here! |  |
 |
The eager participants line up to listen to Prof. Lidenbrock explain the hunt's rules. |
| To get things rolling, or flying, as the case may be, the team captains are blindfolded. |  |
 |
The blindfolded captains try to guide their Frisbees into the volcano guided only by the voice commands of their assistants. |
| What does this mean? |  |
 |
In keeping with the safety focus of the day, Jen and Tim enforce the 3-light-rule for all cavers entering New Trout Cave. Craig and Carol tested carbide lamp assembly skills at Hamilton Cave. |
| The Guardian of the Mushroom Forest stands at the ready. |  |
 |
The Guardian does not let any cavers pass until they demonstrate proper rigging and knot tying skills. |
| Once the Guardian allowed cavers to pass, they had to seek their clues in a forest of giant mushrooms. |  |
 |
In keeping with the story, cavers had to set a load of "explosives" at the swinging bridge at the Aqua campground using a somewhat leaky canoe. They also got a nice tour of Marshalls Cave, and maybe Aqua Cave if they didn't search enough. |
| This year's winners, the Hodgepodge Testosterone Running in Heels and Helmets,
clocked in just after 3 PM. |  |
 |
Pumpkin hunters are known to be gear freaks, but this takes the cake! |
| Some participants didn't get enough caving during the hunt and did a post-hunt trip and cleanup in McCoy's Mill Cave |  |
 |
The winners get an early start on planning next year's hunt at the post-hunt party. |
