The next Government Canyon project date is December 3rd and 4th. There are lots of things to work on. The deepest cave in the park has several blowing leads at the bottom. They need just a little work or a real skinny person. Also lots of ridgewalking and surface sinks to check. Directions are below. Camping is available but contact me to set it up. We meet at 9:00 both mornings in the parking lot of the Volunteer/Research Station. Directions to the Government Canyon Karst Project:
Find the intersection of U.S. 16 and Loop 1604 in northwest Bexar County (clearly shown on any state highway map). Drive 2 miles north on U.S. 16 to the third traffic light and turn left onto FM 1560 (there is a Shell station on the corner). Follow 1560 for 3 miles till you see the sign for GCSNA. Follow the arrow to the right and drive 2 more miles to the sharp left turn in the road. The gate to GCSNA is straight ahead. Enter at the gate and then take the first right. There is an unlocked gate that will need to be opened and then closed behind you. Continue to the Volunteer/Research Station, where we will meet. Marvin Miller
