They tunneled through rock and came from the top of hill and drilled a air shaft to the tunnel/river below. The Etowah snakes around the hill.

This was my fifth time in 20 years and first time on a sit on top kayak. I usually go through in a canoe.

I'll bet that was a cool trip,I guess you needed lighting, has to be dark as night in there.

Yeah, that question. I don't think I'd be going through if I have to lay on my back for 400 yards.
