I believe it is techically the largest passage, not the largest room. After
all, it is 5km long, plus they compared it to Deer Cave which carries that
distinction. It is the Sarawak Chamber in Gook Luck Cave in the same park as
Deer Cave, which is the largest chamber.

Hi Jerry,
What a wonderful gift for the Caverns. When I worked there as a seasonal in
1977 and 1978, I was fortunate enough to receive a photo of the entrance

standing up hill from the entrance with

Dear Friends,
The time has come for me to ask for your help.
The last time I was seriously doing any orienteering was in the military, and
before that digging through USGS drawers at the local sporting goods store
hoping to find the topo maps I wanted.
I now find myself starting a business
I love my Garmin CSX 60

Gotta agree with Don on this one. I've owned a few Garmin units from the el
cheepo etrex to the Vista HCx but the best mid grade unit on the market now is
probably the GPSMAP 60CSx. They have the new high sesitivity reciever for
awesome accurcy even in valleys and under heavey foliage, more
I second the love for the 60 CSx.
The downside: it doesn't come with any maps, aside from basic highways.
The upside: you don't have to buy maps from Garmin. There's a software
called Mapwel (free demo, full version for $45) that lets you make your own
maps from any image:

Me too--I just bought one last week from Amazon for $295, now it
appears to be selling for $267:
