Rocky River Cave

These images are from a trip to Rocky River cave on the night of January 23rd. Notice how trashed the entrance area is. This provides a stark contrast to the beauty found inside. Due to the extreme amount of water inside, the first two waterfalls that we encountered were creating a great amount of mist, so much so that we could hardly see the falls at all, much less properly photograph them. So, those images, even though of poor quality, are included so that you may see what we encountered on this trip. Enjoy!

As always, pick the thumbnail image for an enlarged view.

Thanks for alerting us to the trash at the cave Tim! Because of you and this photo, cavers turned out for numerous clean up trips and now the cave has been returned to its more natural state. Please take a follow up photo! Lynn, SKTF V-Chair

Good job Tim! Nice Cave. It can use a good clean up trip. Lynn

Don, The ladder thing that you are talking about is actually the spiral of the whirlpool going up and down as it appears and then disappears. Real unusual.

Tim, Great photos. What is the "ladder" looking thing in the whirlpool picture? Can't figure that out. Yep, you had a problem with the mist, too. I don't think there is ever a good time to photograph in the bottom part of the cave. Take care, Don
