Hunt at Banger Cave

TimC (North Alabama) · Apr 26, 2009

A call to all, that is to who ever would like to hunt at Banger Cave next Sunday, probably around 1:00 or 1:30. This as you may know is a site that is rich in history in this area. So lets see a show of hands.

Tim,
I would love to go , but my dector doesn't discriminate out cans and pop tops very well. ( or I can't operate it ) I can assure you, there are hundreds there. That has been a drinking site for as long as I can remember. Also, better be packing for two legged critters. Last time I was there ( years back) unsavory characters were living there!! If you can get a big enough crowd it will probably be safe enough!!

Hey Tim, I missed your note about the bottle hunt. I had relatives at the house anyway. The Bangor cave hunt sounds promising, I'll put it on the calender.....George

Wish I could go and meet some of yall, but too busy with Scouts. Plenty to be found there I'll bet. Be sure to post your finds.

TimC (North Alabama) · Apr 27, 2009

I'm with Scouts too! What Troop or Pack are you with? The wife, son and I are totally devoted to it and will soon be starting a Venturing Crew as well.

So you wanna hunt Bangor cave, huh? :icon_pirat:

Well...we were out there hiking about a month ago, and someone had candles lit in the cave. :icon_scratch:

It's pretty creepy out there to me, but maybe if a bunch of folks will go it wouldn't be too bad. I'd stay away from the main entrance just because of all the bottle caps that Kiln spoke of. It's pretty trashed. $:-\$ I'll try to make it out there if you're still planning on going.

OK...did anyone ever make it out to the cave to hunt? I think it's rained every weekend for a month of Sundays now. :P

Hey Nana, nope, to rainy, besides we need you! No really, it has not come together yet but hopefully in the near future.

Hey Tim,
I would love to meet up and hunt at the cave with you. I work this weekend but will be off next weekend if you want to make plans to do it. If you decide to, count me in.
