Adventurers. We hike. We bike. We crawl into caves, climb rocks, snowboard, shoot each other with paintballs, paddle rapids, and eat s’mores. And you are invited to join us!
Here’s how it works. Check out our slate of adventures planned for this semester. See one that you like and hit that register now button and say, “I’m IN!”. Once you’re on the trip list, we’ll reply, “LET’S DO THIS!”.

Caving
Date: March 28, 2025
Depart: 10:00 AM
Return: 7:00 pm
Trip Fee: Free
Additional Costs: Students are responsible for covering all food costs.
Join us as we hike, crawl, climb, slide, roll, and wiggle our way through Worley’s
Cave. This Tennessee cave is known for its voluminous size with rooms more than 75
feet wide and 250 feet long with high ceilings that often exceeds 100 feet. It is
noted for its beautiful formations within its miles of passages.
The lower level of the cave contains a perennial creek complete with various fishes,
white crayfish, and salamanders. We will explore rooms like the Hobbit's Hallway,
the Fairy's Ballroom, Tombstone, Giant's Causeway, Thin Floor Room, the Hall of Masks,
base camp, and the Bermuda triangle.
You will get wet on this adventure! This trip involves hiking, climbing (bouldering-style),
crawling, and wading through knee to thigh deep creek water, so general physical fitness
is advised. No previous caving experience required. This is a great trip for anyone
curious about caving!
Walters State will provide helmets, headlamps, and guide services through the cave.
Students are responsible for all food costs.
Registration is closed. Stay tuned for the next trip in April!
