Get Your Spelunk On

Is the opportunity to escape the surface and explore an underground world few tourists ever see something you look for in a travel destination? Then you might want to hop on over to Web Ecoist’s 20 Extreme Adventures for Spelunkers and Cavers.

Even if you’re already familiar with the 20 cave systems they describe, you’ll no doubt enjoy the collection of photographs they’ve lined up to illustrate their points.

The article also touches on cave diving — an activity that, as you can see above, is perhaps really cool but maybe just ludicrous. You be the judge.

Are there any spelunkers out there? TheExpeditioner wants to know, what caves have you explored, and which one is your favorite? Share your story below in the comments.
