[Texascavers] Honeycreek trip canceled

With much regret I am canceling the Honeycreek trip scheduled for Sept 18-19th. It's a damn shame since over 40 cavers from around the state said they were coming. Over the past few days Hermine has dumped 6-8 inches over the entire Honeycreek water shed, and some areas were even more. The

[Texascavers] Kiwi Sink

Reports came in last night that the TS which dumped 5 or more inches of instant rain on Rolling Oaks during the afternoon filled Kiwi Sink to overflowing about 5 pm and washed away the railroad ties surrounding it. There must have been a good whirlpool. The owner got a cell-phone pic of which we

[NMCAVER] Staging Trip at Fort Stanton Cave

Hi all! At the Labor Day Regional last Saturday, I announced a trip to Fort Stanton Cave on the weekend of Sept. 18-19, open to everyone willing to help out. I've billed this as a staging trip, because what is needed is to stage materials in Don Sawyer Memorial Hall in preparation for the Fort

Re: [Texascavers] Longhorn Caverns needs lighting assistance

Ooops!!! Sorry guys. Longhorn is a great cave...very beautiful. I have been there many times and think everyone should visit. I led a trip there where there were a lot of miscommunications, it was poor organization on our part and I like to gripe. Didn't mean to send that out to everyone. BTW.
