I see that there has been somewhat of a misconception about when Radon became
an issue in cave management. T

reach a 4 working level months of exposure. Of course the 4 working level
months regulation is very conservative but if you are going into a known
high radon cave it is prudent to take some precautions even if it is only a
bandanna.

Not sure if I would trust a rope with 2020 breaking strength. I speculate only
that the gentle continuous weight of the decent wouldn't be the ground
breaker (bad pun) but the ascent. It would be an interesting experi
strength, 3672 – (3672 * 45%) = 2020
pounds breaking strength. That is 28% of the initial strength, not zero!
I’ll leave it up to you to decide if you would trust your life on a rope with a
breaking strength of 2000 pounds.

this list would give you the impression
that ALL of the BLM caves were closed.
For a balanced discussion we should be saying that BLM has closed a few
caves. I doubt that will happen. It is as they say an inconvenient truth.
