Imagine walking along in the forest and two guys just emerge from a random hole in the ground. 😂
We’ll keep at it until that happens. More likely will be us walking along and disappear in a hole in the ground.
Hands down best caving channel out here tbh.
Kind words. We’re just out having fun in our own weird way.
Weather has not cooperated! Lots of wet adventures. Thanks for your support and expect lots more content on the way.
Here's an updated gear list.

It would be interesting to know of just how much money you and Jacob have spent for having to continue buying clothes. Because there's know way that its been cheap. Great Video. 🔦
I would enjoy immensely walking or even ducking around a cave and enjoying its beauty. That being said, with my claustrophobia, constantly being on your stomach would not be an enjoyable way to experience a cave for me!!! Your ability to control your fear is inspiring. Thanks for making me feel like I can't breathe while I'm laying on my couch!!! 🤣
Jacob, you are killing it!
Your explanations are so much more fluid.
Once again, you guys are making the best caving videos.
I show your videos to my friends and family on the big screen TV. (Which is the best way to watch for sure.)
Thanks for sharing them. We just love caving. This weather has made it a challenge.
i like this video specifically for the "know when to lead and to follow well" quote!
I find it so beautifull how those caves are created and that you can almost always fit right trough them
Emphasis on the word “almost”. 🤪
*through
Calvin’s last words: “I don’t know if I can make it.” *takes a look* “Oh, I can make it.”
I'm positive my last words will be laughing.
Hey fellas.
I'm a new subscriber.
I went from being afraid to even watch one of your videos since I first heard about your channel, to becoming addicted and now wanting to go caving. I live in northern California. Unfortunately, I'm too big. I'm 6'2 230lb!
Northern California has hundreds of huge caves.
Pluto's cave is on the road and a big walk through. There's also a crawl at the end, if one was so inclined.
The big lava beds alone have maybe a 500 big lava caves.
Lots of marble and limestone as well but, little bit tougher trips.
That's super cool, what with all the in's and outs and short crawl obstacles. It's like you're in a cavers skate park!
That's about what this hike was like. A lot of interesting areas with a diverse diverse culture of rock and lavs.
Haven't seen one of your videos lately but hell yeah dudes, the tight passages can give me the anxiety Im looking for lol When I first started watching caving videos bout 1 year ago they ALWAYS gave me anxiety, not anymore though and I miss that, so when they do it awesome!!
Always great videos too!!!👍🔥
Thank you and we will try to keep them scary!
Ahh the Dark frontier here we come! Great video, this was very interesting, and TIGHT. Take care as I live vicariously through you two 😜
We’ll stay active so nobody expires on our account. Thanks for watching
👍 Some nice squeezy tight spots in this one! Very cool cave! Love how it looks like terracotta everywhere! Great job once again you guys 👍
Terra-cotta and spiders. Great day underground.
You guys are the some of the bravest people around the globe may God keep you safe
He does, but we take a few precautions too. Thanks for watching
We keep a very low profile, but cave primarily thruout the Pacific Northwest and California. Keep watching...as we are hoping to do a meet n greet cave day. See you underground.
Nice one guys
I still think you guys are absolutely nuts. In the best way possible. Another beautiful cave
Great compliment. We haven’t caved since...um, yesterday in the rainy Notthwest.
@@billsanders9387 I'm so jealous
Thanks Guys. Awesome caving. Take care. Keep up the positive side. ☯️✌️
Thanks. Can’t imagine a negative caver. Anxious, exhausted, hungry etc, but always quite positive.
Cheers. Thanks again for your words sometimes information comes at the right time. Really like your outlook on life. Thanks for the arwsome content. CJ 😁
Thankyou Bill. 🙌👍
I would never make the squeeze. But I'm working on it.
your videos are really great to watch. and without advertising in between. great just. I've been following you for a while now. and yet I look at it as if it were the first time. thank you for this!! Have a nice weekend with all your family
Thank you. Our objective is to create a channel that we would want to watch. So I don't think we'll ever have sponsors or break our videos up with ads.
Started hiking and fossil hunting because of you fellas, and it’s been an absolute blast. I’ve found some cool fossils
You just made our day!! Go for it!
You guys are awesome. I’ve been enjoying your content for some time, keep up the good work and stay safe.
Thanks. We practice caving safety. (Two words not often used together) 🤪
Where is it that you find all these awesome caves?!?! I love watching the videos because I could NEVER do it. I’m way to claustrophobic to do it. Love the videos … much love from AZ 🌵
Caves are everywhere! Unfortunately, Arizona is the state with the least caves in the US, with only a few hundred caves.
Jacop's a fighter
For real, my man's out there!
He’s also a quiet, polite gentleman until he gets underground. Then...let the rocks beware!
Have you ever been walking and have the ground cave in under your feet?
Caves are generally not susceptible to collapse. But there are areas you do have to be careful.
The trail once came out from underneath Jacob when we were hiking to a cave. At night. It was very dangerous.
You guys live life to the fullest. I can't deal with claustrophobia myself but love torturing myself watching you both in tight caves. I love hiking from Windy ridge Mt. St. Helens to Loowit falls.
Those are great hikes. Lots of caves out there.
@@EvenDarker I will leave the caves for you both!😂😂
Always a good day when you guys upload a new video
Kind words are always appreciated.
Man that was intense
We spell that f u n.
Thanks for this...even when it intimitades me a lot 🙈
You should be getting used to it by now. 🤗
Jacob is a beast of a caver for such a young fella.
And a quiet, polite, shy gentleman around people. His natural strength is incredible.
I could never do this. I can’t even be wrapped up in a blanket like a burrito without feeling Claustrophobic.
How cavers sleep! 🤪🤪
look guys, I can't even go in the crawlspace under my house, and it is just hands-and-knees height! You guys belly crawling and squeezing is just beyond my wildest nightmares! Please be careful! Thanks for the emotional response, even if it was fright!
We are probably not going to be careful.
@@EvenDarker ha! I guess I sounded a little like the people you joke about who are always telling you how you break safety rules! I guess I don't REALLY even want you to be careful since that would be boring. But I do want you to always come out alive and well. I'm a big fan and enjoy being made uncomfortable by your videos. Keep up the good work and thanks for the reply!
Damn that looked tight
It’s not an illusion. Probably why we never encounter other people.
I’d rather have moths in my caves I’m in over spiders any day
I have no idea what freaks me out more. The caves, or the animals and insects in them.
The spiders are just soooo cute. The bats, not so much. 🤪
What’s up guys how you all doing again thank you a lot!
Hope don’t judge my loyalty from patron. Wish I could but been gone couple weeks for an er but love ya guys thank you!
Hope you are doing much better. Welcome back.
Bill Sanders hey thanks you for remembering, lol
Yea just a lot of rough stuff but all good.
Heck yea I’m back lol I like yours and your family’s content. Would be cool to try! I say a lot lol thanks again btw takes a lot of work it’s appreciated
Another great video! Wouldn't you be more comfortable in overalls? Something that would catch less on the rocks, especially for squeezes. I saw you using sheet plastic in previous videos.
Well certainly raincoats aren't the best inside a cave. But we have many different styles of clothes and we wear what is best suited for the caves we are in.
@@EvenDarker I wonder if there could be a universal cave suit for all caving needs....
Hi Guys. Hope all is well.
I cant eva do that ill be hittin my head with the Rocks above😭
Helmets are available.
"Do you want to narrate or grunt"?
😁😁😁😁😁😁
I love your videos, can you welcome me to the dark frontier in the next vid? That would be awesome
Thank you!
We've only done that for people who I actually know who lived near here who watch the channel. Younger kids.
And I think once for the patrons.
Sometimes your content is too intense for me to watch. Especially when you're squeezing through those little teeny pathways.
And to think, we do those just for viewers like you. 🤗. Thanks for watching
@9:09 those plastic bags Jacob looks to have wrapped around his ankles. Are those covering his feet to keep them dry?
Yes just a cheap way to waterproof shoes. Its common to people who hike in a super wet, rainy climate. Grocery bags.
Have you ever misjudged the size of a passage way and gotten stuck needing helped out?!?!
You did notice we don’t cave alone. See the video “”The worst claustrophobic caving you will see” on our main channel. Yes, stuck can be an issue. We plan for any situation.
I’m pretty sure I recognize this red passage. Is this Lake Cave? Surely there might be other red lava tubes in the area
Yes that's the red passage in lake. Though the entrance is from a different cave called red cave. And there are several different cave segments featured in the video.
@@EvenDarker cool. I went there the other day, but I thought the red passage was a dead end. Interesting to know it actually has a second entrance.
I can't help to think , anyone ever get a leg cramp squeezing through them tight spots?
Used to happen all the time. It's not pleasant but I would just leave.
I started working my legs more at the gym and make sure that the muscles were getting a good work out all the time.
That's all it took to prevent almost any cramping. Just have to make sure that you're using the muscles consistently. And a little warming up before I cave.
Caves here in Tennessee have bobcats coyotes and bears. Y’all ever encounter those?
Generally only in the desert caves. Where it's not freezing. Most of the caves in the area where we live are too cold for animals.
Man that tree fungus is WHACK it’s like a zombie branch.
Pretty weird indeed.
Dad, have you seen fungus shaped like that where it's long like a hot dog instead of shaped like a 1/2 a pizza?
We have seen quite a variety. I’ll keep an eye out for fungi that looks close to your description.
What's the reason you don't wear more ridgid type clothes as opposed to a hoody, soft material which is more likely to get snagged? Great content, always on edge of my seat
We wear rigid type clothes depending on the cave we are in. I have no less than 20 different sets of caving clothes for various caves.
But in general we're going every day so we just don't care. These caves are freezing so we have to wear something warm and hoodies allow us to slide in-and-out of the clothes while in a passage. Rigid material doesn't snag as much but when it does snag, you're just kind of stuck.
"...and I come up and out, like such and thus" do you find that talking your self through the "true squeezes" makes things easier or do you think that staying quiet and concentrating on the maneuver helps more? i remember you talking about this briefly in an older video.
Cave chatter helps with the nerves. It also drowns our earthquake noises. Thanks for watching
You guys are crazy haha and I'm Scottish so that's sayin somethin
Scotch, Irish, Ukrainian, Cherokee. We’re a crazy mess. 🤪
Hmm am I supposed to feel scared watching this? I spose its cuz I went caving loads of times myself.
Haven’t seen you lately.
Where about would this be? Not that I'm going there cause I'm not able to. In the U.S.?
We generally cave in the West and Northwest of the U.S. Thanks for watching
Love from india 🇮🇳
Caveman’s dad here. I taught college briefly in Dehra Dun. April-May 1991. Hot, Humid, and very interesting.

For the algo
I wonder if the cave mold could be scientifically significant?
Disclaimer: I don't know much more about mold than the average WA resident.
We are cautious around any mold. It’s common in caves, but this black stuff is unique.
What type of animal was that at @18:11
A cave salamander! That was just a little fellow but they do get pretty big. I've seen them as big as an adult human foot.
:o spiders as promised
Do we have some spider videos coming for you! 🤗
Hr been walking a you eve
Great video as always lads
Kind words. Thanks for watching
