I remember that weekend. We checked out numerous sinks near Gorman Falls
Fishing Camp, as it was called then. Somewhere I may have a slide of a cave
entrance which looked like a well. There is likely information in the Texas
Caver about that regional project.

For the 2009 NSS Convention & ICS at Kerrville, TX, we had a different problem.
The beer was free, thanks to Bill Steele and his associates that hauled it
around, and thanks to FB who acquired the beer in the first place. Such a deal,
and I didn't mind at all helping with the operation that offe
thing.

Charles and David: I thought Navigon was a bit pricy, particularly since long
ago I had purchased iHike, following many years of use of MacGPS Pro on a Mac.

Aubri, would it be possible to mention the more exact TIME plus perhaps the

Thanks Carl! This is the first mention of the cave after last year's cleanup.
In the recent past the cave was such a mess no one seemed to care about the
mess inside. For more information on the cleanup project take a look here

Great comments, Travis!
Since I moved out of the state I have worked with the TSS to go through my
Texas cave files and archive what they wanted. On some large maps that were
going to be scanned, I asked for a digital copy back after scanning. In the

What caught my interest was mention of the "platygonus". Back in the 1960s when
we first went down the 24" core hole in Georgetown, TX, into Laubach Cave (now
Inner Space), the first bones for this "cave with no modern entrance" that we
found were from a rather large population of platygonus com

far wall. Perhaps a solar-powered ground drone with a long cable plus a 3D

I had a similar problem with Yahoo 6 months ago. I thought I had deleted a

Frank, my comments.
1. Garmin has been the best for many years now, and is better supported by
other software because they published their format before the others.
2. Some Garmin models allow you to take 10,000 track log points, which can
later be downloaded. You can specify the distance increm
