After that 1st video I got a lot of requests to go back for a more thorough look around so today we revisited Bill Johnston's Hideout and this time we were prepared.

Here is what we found out. The cave goes back at least 62 feet from the opening. Our guest cave explorer was able to crawl back 42 of those feet. The Island is around 160 feet long. There was a 8 inch high opening back in there with a ton of sand in it. John Pitts managed to put the measuring tape 20 feet into that hole. He thinks tape stayed straight. He also says that he believes a person could go back even farther if all of that sand was dug out as the bottom of the opening was essentially sand that John was on top of.
