When I first started vertical caving, people would often say “just don’t look down”. I can’t think of a more compelling way to get me to look down.😂 Now, I make it a point to stop and look down at several points during descent as well as on the climb up. #caving | Adventuring Light

The MIT Caving Club teaches students and campus community members the basics of vertical caving. They meet twice a month in the stairwells of MIT with the aim of taking their stairwell rappelling skills into actual caves.
