Alabama, unidentified cave
KEETON CAVE (RC446) Friday. Probably 1973
While Randy Fanning, a student at Florence State University, was exploring a cave with several friends, he slipped from a rope and fell into a 75-foot pit. He was rescued about 4 hours later by members of the Colbert County Rescue Squad. Analysis: Probably inexperience and unfamiliarity with vertical techniques.
Source: Undated newspaper clipping entitled, "Fall Hurts Youth in Cave Probe." The clipping was reprinted in Decatur Caver Vol. 2. No. 3. May-June 1973.
