Re: [PBSS] Amazing Maze date
Jacqui, I spoke with Don Arburn about organizing a trip to Punkin and Deep Cave near Carta Valley between Del Rio and Rocksprings and this was his reply. Matt, just set a date, we'll work out the rest. Basically you will need a designated trip leader to accompany your group, I have a list I can call upon for volunteers. This person will know the cabin procedures and the paths through the caves. Currently, due to bats, Punkin is closed except for the main big room and it's two rope drops. Deep cave surveys begin soon, therefore opening more cave for your pleasure. There is a $5 per person property usage donation and a few hours of service work. I have directions, liability releases and volunteer hour worksheets. Currently there is a burn ban (no fires), and a requirement that each individual brings 5 or more gallons of potable water to use and then add to the cisterns there. There are many good campsites and the field station has 9 bunks plus couches. There is a shower, kitchen table and fully outfitted kitchen. We even have a presentation screen should anyone bring a projector. Today I'm heading out there to do recon on the upcoming Deep surveys. There is cell service there. My phone number is 361-362-3677, give me a shout with any questions. Is there any interest from grotto members in making a trip to these caves? I believe I will certainly organize something in the future so Alex, Tyler, Tristan and I can go as well as anyone else that would be interested. -Original Message- From: pbss-boun...@caver.net [mailto:pbss-boun...@caver.net] On Behalf Of J.
