UEA - 1st timer by Spiker

WEll where to start. I enjoy caving, climbing and the outdoors. I drove past feild B.C. several times and thought I would be able to get into one of those mines. I drove past and past and never did anything. Me and a buddy (mini mouse... hahahah) went up last week or so to the monarch mine. We kepted to the tree's as much as possiable and then went up the center. We fould the first enterance and went it. We spent about 4 hours inside and pretty much saw everything. Very cool. We also came across a guest book and got this address from it. I was so excited becuase exploring a cave is a thrill and I really liked the exploring part of it.

On Wed. Aug 23rd me and my buddy went to the Hop in Brew House pub to talk to some of the memebers so we can get started with tubs and such. But no one was there :( so like any explorer we went to wallmart and got some tools to pop man hole lids. We went back to Canmore and found a couple of things we are going to go back for. It was running late so we decided to jump out of the car and pop a man hole and see how easy it was. So now that the thrill is done we are moving onto bigger stuff. I know this may sound lame and all but I've never done anything like that. ok.... laugh it up.

So my question is can I get on some trips or something. Or a point in the right direction would help as well.

Thanks for reading my lame ass article but again. Monarch mine was the first of I hope of many explorations.
