I've never rocked Bill's pack but I did get him to, unwittingly, tow me most of the way to the QR series in HCC by hanging onto his trailing boogie board tether. *Love ya, Bill! Andrew G.

It is a real pleasure to see this type of discussion on texascavers. A good example of useful and interesting information which I think is the primary purpose of this forum.

Re: [Texascavers] Photo of Honey Creek Shaft
Butt ugly way too heavy. Wm and I worked w/City of Sunset Valley and we installed this incredible, light weight, poly or plastic 6’ diameter street drain pipe into the entrance of Sunset Valley cave which has a stream that drains directly into the cave. It’s been amazing and the material can be cut to fit using a skill saw or chainsaw. If you’d like the contact at Sunset Valley, Geary just email me and I’ll send you all the info and they’ll be happy to talk w/you about the entire project and photos.
