    Reptile Cave Rescue

    Sometimes turtles and snakes will make their way further into caves than they should, their bodies can't handle the temperature for very long. Turtles always get rescued because it's easy, but what about a snake? Would you carry a snake out of a cave if it was in danger?

    Show me your frog photos!

    Frog in a cave. It was in the entrance area, but I've seen them thousands of feet back in caves.

    KT tape

    Seems like you could do permanent damage, I don't think I'd trust it.

    KT tape

    I don't tape my feet unless I have to, and then I use mole skin and the tape holds it in place. It doesn't stay pit very well, and it can cause more rubbing in different places. I've never used it on my knees, that seems like a bad idea.

    Show us a bridge on the trail!

    Was the Tunnel Hill bridge north of Harrisburg replaced? It was in bad shape 2 years ago.

    Should Solo Hiking and Backpacking Be Discouraged for Safety Reasons?

    Me and my friend walked over a yellow jacket nest on a bushwack, i wouldn't have wanted to face that alone. I still freak out when I hear buzzing
