The Rensselaer Land Trust and the Northeast Cave Conservancy will sponsor a hike to Bentleys Cavern in Berlin, meeting on Saturday, July 10, at 9:30 am.
This outing is for anyone who likes caves and for anyone who just wants a place to cool off from the July sun. Chuck Porter of NCC will lead a mile hike uphill to the entrance of the cave. Those who wish may enter the cave. The first canyon in the cave requires a short drop to enter and is 30 feet high in places. Exploring inner rooms will require a brief crawl on hands and knees through water. Bring a flashlight or LED headlamp, (bicycle) helmet and light jacket if you plan to enter the cave, along with a change of clothes.
Register in advance by contacting Nick Conrad of RLT at 279-1963 or nbconrad@msn.com.
