Moaning Cavern is absolutely awesome ! ! ! - imagine a mountain hollowed
out (by time & water) with a hole at the very top;  You rappel down & into
a cavern big enough to hold the Statue of Liberty, base & all.  Below you
notice ants milling around in the dim light, & get a shock as you realize
you're looking at the helmets of previous rappellers - very disorienting &
a great rush. (aren't fear and apprehension the best highs of all???).
