three days in a cave 

I remember an incident many years ago in the '70s, my first trip to Fort 
Stanton Cave, maybe, where we locked one of our cavers in the cave. We didn't 
go anywhere and were all camped at the cave when we noticed Rich Loose was not 
with us. We hollered for him with no answer and went to the cave and there he 
was at the gate, slightly disgruntled. This was a different situation with a 
supervised youth group. It sounds like a major screw-up in the leadership.

Thanks Lee. Does anyone know of a similar incident like this where
someone has been inadvertently locked inside a cave?
Ironic that his name is Cavar.
