Very nice day for November, a little overcast but mild. Decided to go back to Plaster Mines Cave to take some good photos. This time I brought along my buddy Kevin.
Drove to Plaster Mines Rd outside of Baddeck. Got there about 10:30am Setup and started the GPS and set the waypoint to the cave. We start our bushwacking in. Brush and trees were very wet but day was great. Found the cave and started to explore.
Here are some pics

The cave as I have blogged about before is massive the first cavern is about 100 feet by 90 feet circular. then the next cavern is about 75 feet circular there is one off shoot from that are there are some cool mineral formations on the roof of the cave in this spot. We seen 6 bats taking refuge in the cave. They are pretty cool. See photos below.
On the way back did not get GPS signal until we got back out of the sink hole/canyon where the cave is then I could not remember how to set it to track back. Put after a few minutes got it figured out and got back with no trouble.
We stopped at Kevin's work site on the way back he wanted to check the holes for the explosion he was setting up for the strip mine. Man what a big site. Looks like it is going to be a massive explosion. Very cool.
Well this was a quick one but well worth it got some really great photos.
