On Saturday night James signed us up to go to Berry-Hill. Saturday morning we got up a little earlier and met up with a group going to the cave. When we got there we got suited up a hiked a little ways to the entrance. Just inside the entrance the ground slopes shaply down to a 70 foot pit. At the bottom of the pit is a 30 foot tall cone of dirt and stuff that has fallen in the pit including some animals that wandered in and slid down the slope. We saw bones of a donkey or something and apparently there was a dog that was pretty fresh and still had his collar on and stuff but I didn't see it. Anyway if you stayed to the side you could crawl along a ledge and stay off the slope and repel into the pit from a 90 foot ledge. So we all repeled down and went down the debris cone into a large room, up some large breakdown and then down a 15 foot drop with a hand line. Next we follwed the stream back to crawl that opened up to a sump then came back and ascended up our rope.
