    I’ve been through that cave. They blocked it off around 2007 to save bats from “white nose syndrome “ I wish I could go through it again.

    I went to Red River Gorge with my best friend and our boyfriends around 37-38 years ago. I seen Natural bridge, but we didn't go on it.
    We rode the skylift, back then it didn't cost anything. I have a picture of us on Chimney Top. There have been some people who had
    died there trying to cliff dive and falling off cliffs. I live in Kentucky so I see it's beauty all the time.

    He said: the restaurant @the end was once a 'cat house' & sheriff childress picked him out years ago the last time he was visiting with the cub scouts(we're both from Cincinnati-not disclosing exactly where we r now-lol nervously) thought I'd share...since he wouldnt be quiet pointing & giving his pov tour...love him always...

    I visited Natural Bridge when I was a kid, that path to the top was more like a deer trail, wasn't with steps or anything, no guard rail, and once on the top we scratched out initials in the rock but the years of travelers and hikers have worn them off. I am surprised the ''squeeze'' is still there, I am amazed they haven't widened it, but again there were no steps when I visited it as a kid. I visited it a few years back and took the chair lift...too old to make the climb anymore. Have you visited Chained Rock near Pikeville KY?

    I live 10 minutes from the bridge! Lol! I'm also a big guy, I've hiked up there more times than I can remember, and I always get stopped by a tourist from outta town telling me its a long way up there and that I might not make it! 😅 No offense, but I've always heard of that narrow gap called Fat Mans Squeeze, and you never realize how much you can actually suck in the gut until you try to go through!
