He might have gone to a grotto meeting near you at one time. Bill is a
member of the DFW Grotto and a former member of the now-defunct Maverick
Grotto in Ft. Worth where I had met him back in about 2002(?). You may have
also seen him at one of the TSA Spring Conventions or an NSS convention.

In this morning's landing video of the Blue Origin capsule, there is a
large rock shelter in the video
to the left of the capsule in the face of the cliff about 30 seconds before
it lands.
Is that a cave ?
Does the feature have a name ?
Surely it is mentioned in the Caves of Culberson County.
Near Cave Peak and or the 10,000 year clock.

Thanks Bill, that is probably it.Except I do not know how far the
capsule landed
from the official landing pad, nor in what direction. Surely not more
than 20 miles,
as it goes almost straight up and straight down until the final parachute
on the capsule

Yesterday Bexar Grotto members helped man a TSS booth and a Bexar Grotto
booth at the Cascade Caverns Cave Fest. The turnout was not huge but it was

Greetings Cavers,
Join the UT Grotto this week for an informative presentation by Marvin Miller.
We'll hear all about the major caves of the Government Canyon State Natural
Area and we'll get an update on the monthly karst project status. If you've

I'll be deleting this forum but not until after I've had my final say.
1. I have rarely read cave related information on this forum.
2. I'm the only one I have seen be attacked for responding to a post with
perfectly viable information and no attitude.
3. Once again I get accused of picking a fight
I had the French version once upon a time but where it is now I have no
idea. it was an interesting study.

Terry Cavanaugh certainly hit a few high spots during his brief caving career.
There is a short summary and a few pictures of the Siffre adventure at Midnight
Cave in 50 Years of Texas Caving, (the encyclopedia of Texas caving), pages
459-467.

There are 3 or 4 cavers on this forum who have actually gone caving in
Caverns of Sonora - especially if you call "hauling out rocks," as caving.
I once was shown a rare picture of some unusual speleothem off-trail in
Sonora. There were similar, but different pictures in the books about
Texas cav
That would be the “Diamond Horseshoe.” See page 406 in 50 Years of Texas
Caving (the encyclopedia of Texas caving). You should have a copy in your
library.

As Carl and I have discussed at length, Mayfield Cave (Sonora) was still quite
wild and had been only recently explored when friend Jimmy Walker and
