Once again you will come to a room and look to see where to go. On the right there is a board stuck in the mud and you have to bely crawl through. On the other side of this and towards the end it seems like you are crawling through a crack and here it gets tricky again. You almost have to hop from a little stone bridge to a little stone bridge with a nice fall waiting for you if you slip. At the very end is the onion. A small crystalized waterfall coming straight out of stone made of stone and minerals. You have reached the end.
Well it has been a few years since I have been to Bear Cave and even longer since I have been to Con Cave because it was closed. To my surprise I also found the trail system was changed around so nobody can walk past the resevoir.
Well, after a few hours of walking all over the mountain and not finding Bear Cave because of the new unfamiliar trails I found Con Cave. Con Cave is open!!!! Sure people break legs and backs and what ever other rumors I heard but it was nice to see the cave open again.
Its been about fifteen years since I last crawled my way back to the onion and touched it. The onion I speak of is a crystalized water fall at the end of the cave.
I completed the trip with a buddy of mine, Bill C, and it was his first time in any cave. The day would have been better if we could of found Bear Cave sooner.
