The Maiden Voyage of the Aqua Socks


a.k.a. Hezekiah's Tunnel

Dug in 701 BC to bring water into Jerusalem from Gihon spring.
It's an impressive 1,750 feet long.


Check out that kid's face!

Showing us how deep the water was.

Going down, down, down...




We had to bring flashlights. The tunnel was pitch black.

The BYU group.

In some places the tunnel's ceiling was so low we had to crouch to get through. Here it's at least 15 feet tall.
