Hi, I make art sometimes. Check out my art feeds!

Also I wasn’t properly dressed for a crawl. I was only wearing a t-shirt and shorts. And it’s SO DAMN DUSTY.

Plus, caves are pretty cold and wet, yknow! Hypothermia is a huge concern when it comes to caving.

Cool! But spooky. Another reason to wait to bring other people before squeezing myself in there.

Also, even at the mouth of the cave, the cell service had completely cut off.

I’d be a total dumbass to get myself stuck there, so I’d rather be safe than sorry, forever and always.

Anyways, this is my initial reaction the first time I went into the cave.

It spooked me at first, but then I REALLLY wanted to crawl through to the other side.

But I had already decided that I would wait until I brought back more people, then I’d do whatever dangerous nonsense after that.

This one did require crawling.

In fact, the passage to the large chamber is so small, it would have require me to get on my belly and shimmy my way forwards, with only enough room to move forwards and backwards.

But! The actual cave itself! I ended up finding a different cave than the one I was looking for. But this one is also a similar length, around 17m instead of 12m, and it’s a self-guided cave, so it’s safe(ish).

Next, I found the creek where the cave is located. This region is always in a drought, so most of the creek bed was dried up with plenty of places to cross over.

I *really* got an exuberance out of seeing its erosion pattern.

So fkn cool, man! So awesome!! Aaaa

Speaking of random caves, this county alone has over 3000+ limestone caves, so I managed to find just a few of them, and also some other things that weren’t exactly caves.

I had to climb up many tall cliffs to find these

(ps don’t climb cliffs without proper gear, I got lucky and didn’t fall)

I wandered onto the wrong trail a few times. Saw some cool things, like a random spoopy looking cave in the distance, and the kind of home I hope I can only hope own once I’m further in my career

I didn’t see many critters, unfortunately, and I didn’t stop to take many photos of them, since they weren’t the focus of this trip.

A separate post will be made for them (I DID see this MASSIVE 3x3ft spiny-backed orb-weaver web, though!)

This is one of the few hikes that made me feel nervous as I was goin’ along

A lot of the hike was by a huge cliff drop off without any fences, and the terrain itself was full of loose rocks

And I was carrying a bunch of equipment. One wrong move or slip, and I would have likely tumbled to my death

Some pics at the top of the mountain where I started the hike
November 29, 2025 at 12:34 AM
to get to this cave, I needed to hike through 10 minutes of mountainous terrain.

But because the cave’s location is hidden to non-grotto members, it took me a total of 2 hours to find it.

I am *still* exhausted and recovering from that hike at the time of posting this (my muscles thank me tho)

So, here’s that hiking / caving thread! 🧵

Austin so weird you’ll find peacocks in random alleys. [Indian peafowl]

If the hike doesnt make me sore enough to nearly collapse in exhaustion by the time I get home, then I don’t want it!

Will upload cave pics later :]

Holy shit, after two hours of searching and scrambling up cliffs, I finally found it
November 25, 2025 at 7:18 PM
This one looks very cozy and inviting
November 25, 2025 at 6:51 PM
I keep scaling up these damn cliffs to find this cave and all I keep finding are these
