The schedule for the Government Canyon Karst Project for the rest of 2010 is as follows:
October 2 & 3 November 6 & 7 December 4 & 5 There are many caves still to be found at Government Canyon. There are caves to survey. Some of them require vertical work and some of them are short and easy. There are some intriguing in-cave leads and there are hundreds of surface features to investigate. Some of them will lead into caves. There is plenty for cavers of any skill level so mark these dates on your calendars and come help out. Camping is available at the park. Contact me to set that up. We will meet at 9:00 each morning 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 (210) 415-5190
