Did anyone ever tried to get the nutty putty caves open again for cavers or maybe even visited there after that incident?? It's just a curious Q, if those caves are open including the eds push, now, is there any possibility of finding something there...?

Read that they've been filled in sadly the chaps remains are still down in the caves

I mean you might find the remains of the guy who died down there since it's basically a grave.

Not to be be morbid but after 16 years he's skeletonized and probably finally unstuck. But yeah it's a tomb.

It’s been filled in to prevent future tragedies from happening.

Opening Nutty Putty would be like opening a tomb. It is considered a hallowed grave site.

Maybe fossilized remains.
