[Texascavers] TSA - CBSP February Project Weekend

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

This weekend, Feb 11th, is the 5th TSA-CBSP Project Weekend of the
2016-2017 season.  The project is limited to 20 people and it is already
full.  So why am I emailing the list about a full trip?  Because people
will complain either way if I do or dont send the email reminder. :)
The March, April and May trips are still open, so email if you want to sign
up for one of those.

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

Remember that this weekend, Dec 10th, is the 3rd TSA-CBSP Project Weekend
of the 2016-2017 season. The weather should be nice and chilly with very
low chances of rain. We will be camping at Caver Camp.
If you are thinking about attending, YOU MUST EMAIL me and reserve your
space BEFORE NOON FRIDAY. I am obligated to provide the list of volunteers
to the Park by this time.
Please read the the information and understand the rules posted at
http://www.cavetexas.org/projects/cbsp.html .

Here is a photo of a long skinny animal seen in the park, can you identify

[Texascavers] TSA - CBSP November Project Weekend

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

Remember this weekend, Nov 12, is the 2nd TSA-CBSP Project Weekend of the
2016-2017 season. The weather should be good for temperature, but there has
been rain this week and there is a chance of rain on both Saturday and
Sunday mornings, so plan accordingly. We will be camping at Caver Camp
unless unless the road is too muddy. Join the mailing list (see website)
for this project for last minute updates if are you are planning on coming.

Please completely read the project website
http://www.cavetexas.org/projects/cbsp.html .

Also, this project weekend will be the last project weekend for the season
that will not require prior reservation. We have decided that we will be
able to better handle our responsibilities with the park and productivity
if we know who intends to attend and limit the group size to 20 people. I
do not expect this to effect any of the regular attendees and will help
with the quality of learning for first timers. Keep an eye out for an email
and updates to the website on how this will be handled.

[Texascavers] TSA - CBSP October Project Weekend

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

Remember that this weekend is the 1st TSA-CBSP Project Weekend of the
2016-2017 season.
Highs in the low 80s and 0% chance of rain, should be really nice.  Home
base will be at Caver Camp this weekend.  Kris and I will arrive at about
9:30p on Friday evening.
This would be a good weekend to come out and do the groundwork and lay
claim to a project cave for this season.  We are expecting a large group of
new cavers, so any help from experienced cavers to lead groups would be
greatly appreciated.

Please completely read and understand the information at
http://www.cavetexas.org/projects/cbsp.html.
The 2016-2017 dates are also listed there so you can update your calendars.

Reservation is not necessary except for groups of 4 or more, but if you
email me you are thinking about coming I will keep an eye out for you.

Here is a photo of Tyler from last June coming out of Top Hat Cave, his
fist survey as sketcher.

Re: [Texascavers] Colorado Bend State Park TSA Project weekend! (Mar 11-13)

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

The road to Caver Camp is closed because of the wet conditions.
We will be camping and meeting at the Park Conference Center.
We will not be going into the Conference Center, just camping on the lawn.

The water at Cherokee Creek near Bend is still over the road, so do not
attempt to cross until the water goes down.

[Texascavers] Colorado Bend State Park TSA Project weekend! (Feb 12-14)

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

Remember this weekend is the fifth CBSP TSA project weekend of the season
(Feb 12-14). I should have sent this out on monday, but better late than
never. Please read all project information at
http://www.cavetexas.org/projects/cbsp.html
. We will be staying at Caver Camp. I will be arriving Friday (tomorrow)
night at about 9:30pm and camping. The weather is going to be exceptional
and everyone who attends is guaranteed to discover borehole passage.
There will be a couple groups of new cavers planning on attending this
weekend, so if you know what you are doing and are available to help, that
would be great.

[Texascavers] Colorado Bend State Park TSA Project weekend! (Jan 8-10) (Location Change)

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

Remember this weekend is the fourth CBSP TSA project weekend of the season
(January 8-10). Also since we will be holding the TSA Winter Business
Meeting on Sunday, we will be setting up camp at the Conference Center
(house above the waterfall) instead of at Caver Camp. I will be arriving at
about 9:30pm Friday and adding the TSA lock into the gate. If you arrive
before me and do not already have access you will need to wait for someone
who does or email ahead of time to arrange something. The combo to this
BLUE TSA lock is 2-2-8-7. Always leave gate locks EXACTLY as you found
them. You may sleep inside on a bunk bed or bring a tent and camp on the
lawn. We will cook group meals. It will be lots of fun. Give the project
details a read at http://www.cavetexas.org/projects/cbsp.html.


GROUP MEAL: email Kris at kapkanga...@gmail.com to be counted in. How many
people and what days and what you cant eat.

[Texascavers] Colorado Bend State Park TSA Project weekend! (Dec 11-13)

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

Remember this weekend is the third CBSP TSA Project weekend of the season
(December 11-13).  Sorry for the late reminder, I have been out of the
country.  There is small chance for rain on Saturday evening, but the
temperatures will be very reasonable.  Please read about the project at
http://www.cavetexas.org/projects/cbsp.html.  If you have never attended
this project and plan to come, call or email me and we can get you ready.

Kris and I will be at Caver Camp at 930p or 10p on Friday night.  I was
thinking about making another trip over the river if anyone is interested.
Last month's trip over there was a bunch of fun.  Otherwise there are a few
tasks we can do on the San Saba side.

Here is a compilation video of my group's trip over the river last month:

[Texascavers] Colorado Bend State Park TSA Project weekend! (Nov 13-15)

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

Remember this weekend is the second CBSP TSA Project weekend of the season
(Nov 13-15).  There is a chance of scattered showers, but the temperature
should be amazing.  Please read about the project at

this project and plan to come, call or email me and we can get you ready.

I will be arriving at Caver Camp at 930p or 10p on Friday night. With the
good temperatures, I think it's a great opportunity to make a trip over the
river for some Lampasas County fun. We will see if the river levels agree
with my plan.

Here is a photo of a shell. How did it get there? ;)

Remember this weekend is the first CBSP TSA Project weekend of the season.
The weather will be perfect for you to find a new cave, survey it, and come
back to camp and tell everyone all about it.  I have new tasks if you do
not already have one in mind.

Please read about the project at http://www.cavetexas.org/projects/cbsp.html.

[Texascavers] Colorado Bend State Park TSA Project Weekend (March 13-15)

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

Reminder that this weekend is a TSA project weekend at Colorado Bend State
Park.
Current weather says no rain and temperatures like you were sitting in your
AC, so why not come out and camp and get into some caves.
We will be meeting at Caver Camp at 930am for sign in.  I will be arriving
and camping on Friday night at 9 or 10.  I have tasks for those who don't
already have projects.

Thanks to the donations last month, the project has 2 new Garmin CS60x GPS
units.  We now have functional 3 GPS units for project work. Yay!

Please read the project info sheet if you are planning to attend.

Re: [Texascavers] [CBSP-TSA] January Colorado Bend Project Weekend

[Will Quast via Texascavers]

FYI: We do not have access to the Conference Center at CBSP this weekend.
The Conference Center is still under renovation and is in no condition for
any type of use.  Project volunteers will meet and stay at Caver Camp.
The Conference Center has been requested for the 2nd weekend in February
and will be confirmed when Jason returns.  Per Kurt's last email, The TSA
winter meeting for 2015 will be at Colorado Bend State Park Feb 15th,  at
9am.

 The January trip of the Colorado Bend Karst Project is this weekend! It's
 going to be cold so don't forget your thickest sleeping bag and extra
 layers of clothes. On the bright side, expect a warm fire in the evenings
 and remember it's the best time of year to get into CBSP caves!

 As always, check out the project info sheet for more information.
