Troop 51 spelunkers go exploring

Scout Troop 51 of Pickens recently took the Wild Cave Tour at the Lost Sea Caverns in Sweetwater, Tenn. The tour included a tour of the caverns, a boat excursion on the largest underground lake in North America and the “Cave Crawl,” which consisted of exploring a multitude of  “cracks, crevices, nooks and crannies” on hands and knees and spending the night on the cave floor. It was an exciting trip for the 18 brave souls who went on the adventure and resulted in some very muddy clothes and sore bodies (mainly for the adult leaders, who are too old to know better).
