I have been following the calcite "sand" posts with interest. George, I
suspect the soils may be more important than you acknowledge. I think it
depends more on residence time and partial pressure (and, of course, plant
activity) than "thickness" of the soils as such.

I enlarged the Wire Wiggle slightly when I went through it
back in the 80's(?). I couldn't get my long legs around the corner,
so I used my Swiss Army knife to carve away a bit of rock so that my
knees could make the turn. It was quite soft, likely due to some
type of surface corrosio

I do wonder if it was enlarged...it never seemed much worse to me than the
keyhole/birth canal. Does anyone have a section/vertical profile of it?
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by 120 degree bend...

To the best of my knowledge, Bill Russell pioneered that famous route at the
back of Airman's Cave. I know my trip there was with Bill. That section of the
cave has some amazing long thin selinite needles. But, the 120 degree tight
bend in the Wire Wiggle is a killer as the knees will not easily

to a mass spec to measure the outgassing, which may give us some data soon.

Thanks for elaboration at CWAN. I agree with you. The same thing is

Almost right. The CO2 levels and airflow velocities are essentially
barometrically driven (not chimney effect which requires substantial elevation
differences). In the summer barometric pressure changes are usually small so
little air exchange occurs (and CO2 levels can build). In the winter, fr

Ezell's Cave is another place where thick sheets of calcite ice seem to form
very quickly. A beautiful thing to dive under, like giant snowflakes mixed
with saucer sized chunks of "ice"raining down from above.
