Re: [Texascavers] Green place in Mexico

Went there in the sixties. Land Rovered up to some caves near there. Terrible road, steep and narly. Found some interesting caves in the jungle. Had a real thrill coming down with the brakes over heating. Made it back to Tamuin and Valles and mapped Arroyo and a cave across the road form the hot

Why can't we go back to Flat Creek? They have ten cabins and a hotel on site where the foogies can stay. I like the canyon but I have to always leave before dark because I can't drive at night. If they had a bedroom maybe I would hang arou d longer and get drunk or something like that. --

Re: [Texascavers] The Texas Caver

Another stupid idea of mine. I don't have a clue as to how many grottos there are or caver clubs. Each one should elect a scribe and send the e-mail reports to a central place. Editor in chief. You can send photos too. This is a picture of Crash Kennedy being eaten by Godzilla at Dimbulb Cave in
