Re: [Texascavers] Hill Country SNA Karst Project
Roman, We will eventually get to doing transects but right now we are focusing on fully investigating every feature and cave already known about. While doing that we have discovered some new caves and sinks. We have a number of digs going on and some caves to survey. You can certainly join us on the 4th or 5th. Just find us in the parking lot at 9:00. No need to pay or sign in at the visitors center.

I may have overlooked the email with details. Is this to conduct transects to identify karst features?

Re: [Texascavers] Hill Country SNA Karst Project
Marvin, Arron and I both have commitments so we cannot make it this weekend. But I'll be there in February.

The Hill Country SNA Karst Project weekend is scheduled for December 5 and 6. Camping is available on the 4th and 5th. This weekend we will be stationed at the “Group Lodge” at the north end of the Park Road, rather than at Chapas. Have a look at the park map to see how to get there: https://tpwd.texas.gov/publications/pwdpubs/media/park_maps/pwd_mp_p4507_115.pdf. The same rules apply. You don’t need to check in at headquarters. Form teams of people you feel comfortable hanging around with and let me know you are coming if you can. Attendees will be expected to wear masks and maintain distance as appropriate.

[Texascavers] Hill Country SNA Karst Project
Cavers, The Karst Project at Hill Country SNA will be held on October 2 & 3. This is a TSA project. We will be working on digs and exploring and surveying caves. To pay attention to everyone's safety during the pandemic I am asking participants to attempt to put together their own teams of 3 or 4 people that they feel comfortable with. For people that can't do that I will create tasks that will keep you safely distanced, like ridgewalking. The SNA has given us the use of the Chapa's group site for camping for the weekend. There are RV hookups if someone needs one. You can arrive Friday night and stay the weekend or just show up in the morning by 9:00 on the day of your choice. There is no need to check in at the visitor center. The road and trail map for the park is available here: https://tpwd.texas.gov/publications/pwdpubs/media/park_maps/pwd_mp_p4507_115.pdf Contact me with any questions.

[Texascavers] Hill Country SNA Karst Project
Cavers, The karst project at Hill Country SNA kicks off next weekend, February 1st and 2nd. Be aware that this project is taking the place of the Government Canyon project this month. We will be doing normal karst project activities. Our first focus will be surveying and documenting all the known, unsurveyed caves and documenting and investigating all the known karst features. Caver camp will be at the Chapa's Group Camp area close to the southern end of the park. See the park map at the following link: https://tpwd.texas.gov/publications/pwdpubs/media/park_maps/pwd_mp_p4507_0115g.pdf Camping is available Friday and Saturday nights. We will start organizing at 9:00 in the morning so try to be there by then if you aren't staying overnight. Be aware that cell service in the SNA is spotty at best.
