The Red River
Swinging bridge on the Sheltowee Trace trail .
Some cliffs along the trail
CloudSplitter mountain
At the base of Cloudsplitter
Edgar getting up the entry crack with help of a fixed rope.
Then Willis
He made it, feeling like a king
The big split in the rock that gave this summit its name

Getting into the split
The climb to the narow passage
Wow some light !!!!
The climb down on the other side of the narrow passage
A cave !

Time to leave.....
Back through the narow...
And to the exit..... one last look back !
