My group entered through the big room, and went into the cave toward the bath tub. I do reccommed that you are alright with tighter squeezes for this caving. Then entrance into this part of the cave is pretty tight (laying on your back and scooching or face first and crawling prone) and beyond that is a lot of crawling on your hands and knees. Then you come to the corkscrew, which is a VERY small place to squeeze through, and requires you to angle your body to even get through it. Luckily, if you backtrack about 20 feet, you can go through the bathtub and end up at the same place as the corkscrew. Personally I liked the bathtub (which required going knee high in cold water) because no more tight places, and it was prettier.
The sump was really cool, a natural slide so to speak. But be careful in the water, it is deep and you should not fully submerge yourself. It is very cold. You will have to duck under the ceiling so your chest will get wet. (You may notice you body reacts negatively to this). From there on it is wide passages, most of which you can stand all the way up. My group did not go to the lake, but hope to later!

Also, wear knee and elbow pads, helmets with lights, and skin tight-ish clothing.
