Cave Exploring - Descend into darkness

This past weekend I went caving in real life. It’s a fascinating sport and a bit mysterious. So, I wanted to seek out some caves in SL.


While exploring today I came across Mount Campion. It is the highest point in mainland second life. Below the ridge is an extensive network of natural caves, an entry point is located here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Campion/153/98/303 There are seven (known) entrances into the cave system, don't get lost.

In SL you can't dig a tunnel or hollow out a cave because land is a one-sided surface. But what you can do is dig a large hole. The hole is then roofed over with stones, or other textured prims, to create a cave. Or you can build a mountain entirely out of prims, with a hollow center.

So, if you think that you may enjoy caving, go check out this beautifully done sim - Mount Campion.
