Swirl Canyon, Horizontal Trip, Weeknight Trip

John Law and I are leading a trip to Swirl Canyon the night of Wednesday June 18th. This is a great horizontal cave in Davidson County. You can expect crawling, climbing, mucking, sloshing, and mudding. You MUST have 3 sources of light and a helmet. At least one source of light must be attached to your helmet. Knee pads, gloves, and a change of clothes for after the trip are strongly recommended. We will be wading in ankle deep water so please wear appropriate foot-ware with good ankle support.

John Law and James Wood will lead a trip to this horizontal cave, located in Davidson County after work on Wednesday,January 16. This cave requires more crawling than Hardins Cave but is a great cave located in our own backyard. The meeting time and place is 6 p.m. at the Shoney’s at I-24 and Bell Road (Hickory Hollow area).

We will leave at 6 PM Wednesday from the parking lot of Shoney's, at the Bell Road Exit of I-24 in Antioch (southeast of downtown Nashville).
You will need a helmet, 3 light sources, one or two of which are mounted to the helmet and spare batteries for your lights. You need to wear long pants and sturdy hiking boots. Knee pads are good, but not mandatory. You will need a change of clothes as you will get wet and muddy.

Joey Stuckey will be leading a Wednesday Night trip to Swirl Canyon Cave on December 13th. We will meet at the Shoney's at the Bell Road Exit of I-24 in Antioch at 6 PM. This cave is suitable for beginners; very little climbing and crawling except for a short crawl (100' or so) at the beginning of the cave.
