The venture was an international event with invited participants such as the leading American diver Wes Skiles and Rob Palmer from Britain. With a full complement of equipment and experienced personnel, the cave was extended to its present limit of 2150m. Here a boulder blockage was encountered, an obstacle which may conceivably yield to a streamlined diver. The expedition was a major success, but undoubtedly the most exciting event took place during the final retreat from the cave. It was 3:40 p.m. in the afternon when virtually the full team assembled on the subetrranean lakeside and started unloading the equipment which had just arrived from the depth of the system. On the surface a freak cyclone hit the area, destroying the camp and, within a period of twenty-five minutes, depositing more than twice the area's annual rainfull. Before those underground became aware of the magnitude of the event a torrent of water poured into the vertical shaft, causing a massive landslide and collapse. Miraculously, despite a hail of boulders crashing into the chamber at the bottom, no one was injured. The exit route was completely blocked and thirteen of the team were effectively entombed. With an air of calm resignation, they set about organising themselves for survival for an unknown length of time. Fortunately radio communication was established within hours of the disaster. An escape route through the chaos of boulders was pioneered the next day, and all arrived safely on the surface by 8:00 p.m. on Saturday. Their equipment, valued at over Australian $200,000, had to be left where it lay, to await retreival after a suitable period of natural stabilisation. --Bill Mixon All the world's a stage, but the play is badly cast.

This Plan was developed with input gathered during the first series of meetings we had with cavers and cave researchers in July. The Response Plan provides a strategy to reduce or slow the disease's westward movement and protect New Mexico's bat populations. Two meetings will be held on Monday, November 8 from 6:30 – 8 p.m. at the following locations: Carlsbad Public Library Annex, 101 S. Halagueno, Carlsbad, NM Albuquerque BLM District Office, 435 Montano Road, Albuquerque, NM We want to share with you the Response Plan, the criteria used for defining a Significant Bat Roost for Southwestern bat species, and determine who among you may be interested in assisting the agencies with cave signing/gating, monitoring of WNS, or other projects associated with WNS. Thank you for your consideration of these meetings, we look forward to meeting with you next week. You're welcome to share this invitation with other interested cavers and cave researchers.

[Texascavers] Robber Baron Cave on TV
Video link: http://www.woai.com/content/news/beamer/story/Beamer-takes-you-deep-under-San-Antonio-into/SKq37ZNwQ0eU9QwyvDCbGw.cspx Beamer takes you deep under San Antonio into Robber Baron Cave Reported by: Randy Beamer Email: randybea...@woaitv.com Published: 11/01 7:46 pm ShareThis Updated: 7:15 am Deep under San Antonio lies a long-forgotten piece of history. Robber Baron Cave was a tourist attraction until it was sealed off decades ago. But with the help of a scientist doing new research, Randy Beamer takes you deep inside the historic cave. Joe Mitchell and I are all suited up in caving gear, with boots, elbow and knee pads, gloves, and miner's helmets with lights on top. On Joe it looks natural. Me -- not so much. Maybe it's because Joe is a scientist in his day job and his passion is caving. Caving is what the hardcore call the sport and science of exploring caves -- which some still call spelunking. But Joe is about to be more of a tour guide, giving me a history and science lesson of a cave he's been researching for some time. In fact, Joe just re-drew the map of San Antonio's Robber Baron Cave, using old surveys, measurements he's taken himself, and new computer software. And he continues digging into the unusual history of it using newly available documents -- many of them old newspaper archives digitally scanned and made searchable by computer. Over a picnic table in the landscaped lot above the entrance, Joe points out different features of the cave which lies 40-60 feet beneath our feet. Here at the edge of the sinkhole leading down to the cave opening, was a concession stand decades ago. A black and white photo documents that you could buy hot dogs and sodas there, back in the days when you could also pay 50 cents for a tour. But most people in San Antonio have never heard of it because since the 1930's the different owners have done their best to block off the entrance with metal gates, trash, even a concrete bunker. That bunker was finally blasted away a few years back and a non-profit group called the Texas Cave Management Association now operates it as a preserve. And before you ask -- no -- it's still not open to the general public and not likely to be - ever. That's largely because of the threat of vandalism and people getting lost inside the maze of natural tunnels. So there are more gates to keep out the curious, which Joe Mitchell unlocks to let me squeeze in. Just inside the entrance is an area about the size of a small office. I'm optimistic, thinking this might not trigger any claustrophobia in me. Joe assures me there are smaller challenges ahead. We can show you a lot tighter areas in the cave,Mitchell says. There are passages just big enough for your body to go through and no bigger. I had to ask. A short time later I'm looking at a passage they describe as 18 inches high and three feet wide. To me that looks like a gross overestimation, but I'm committed to get the full caving experience. I ask for any last bit of advice before hoisting myself into the shrinking void. Thrash and flail, I thought I heard Joe say. Excuse me? Thrash and flail, he repeats, laughing. It means get through however you can. - Visit our website: http://texascavers.com To unsubscribe, e-mail: texascavers-unsubscr...@texascavers.com For additional commands, e-mail: texascavers-h...@texascavers.com

Re: [Texascavers] English-Spanish caving dictionary
The dictionary seems like a helpful resource.Being able to use some of these words in a conversation would most likely require a very basic knowledge of the language the caver is trying to speak or write about. I only see a few words missing that are used by some Mexican cavers and also foreign cavers in Mexico. Resumidero El guano Helectita ? Cuevero ( and los cueveros ) ( slang for caver ) Pasaje Sector ( section of a cave ) Conectar and missing ( I think ) are words for break-down and twilight zone In a normal conversation, such as around camp, there might be some slang or colloquial adjective added to a word.Such as la pasage termina en un pinche sifon. ( as in frickin sump ) And it doesn't cover all the variations of a word, for example, it has the verb explorar, but not exploracion.

Pinche is a man who help in the kitchen or a person unfairly, if the cave is dificult with many extrange passage, is a pinche cave. Pendejo, this word you can use when a person is stupid all the time, or have a lot money: example: Only the pendejo drive a mustang, I want to be a Pendejo... is a joke, but the people use this word for many uses. Hijo de la chingada, is a offensive sentences but when we said, this cave is a hija de la chingada, is like a extremly dificult. Guey with G, is offensive word to someone. But the people use this word commonly in the day so, is like a hey cuate!, hey you! many people not remember the name of the person and say that, or only for friendly situation in a party, hey guey I need this, hi guey depends the form that you said and the modulation of your voice, the intention.
