"I think I got pretty close to the location of the second item. It's located farther into the tunnel from the grate. I won't go into all of the details, but after poking around that tunnel for so long I became convinced that the second item was hidden near a smaller side tunnel. Unfortunately I lost all of my notes about this particular location but if my memory serves me correctly, the side tunnel was marked with pink paint. I think it said something about a bridge, maybe? And it had a distance painted there, too. Yeah, it said '1/8 mile.' Maybe that was it.

"I don't think the second item was located down that small tunnel, but feel free to explore down there if you want. It's a little cramped, so I never bothered to go in. Instead, you should focus your attention to the area past that small side tunnel, maybe fifty feet further in. That's where I think the second item is hidden."

The Orignal Swallowed By Darkness Series By Clyde Southern and Matilda can be found here, they have all been archived, but I felt the need to give credit to the Cacher who made this series (Subterranean Cartography, Fortes Fortuna Audet, and It Devours From Below)

Also it seems some Crazy Stinky Cachers have placed another cache to be included as part of this series The Mouth That Devours if you choose to undertake this cache or any in this series please keep the weather in mind.
