Greg Mosier organized the Kleck Park project for Bexar Grotto cavers today. Kleck Park is a new Comal County nature park. It's not big but the main hilltop is covered with karst features. Participants were Lauren Deleon, Christin Miller, Leah Miller, Marvin Miller, Greg Mosier, Joe Schaertl, Victoria Sommers, and Arron Wertheim. Greg organized permission for the project from Comal County. We surveyed two small caves and dug on several sinks. Kleck Cave was surveyed to 8.4 m long and approximately 6.2 m deep. Little Kleck Cave was surveyed to 4.8 m long and 3.9 m deep. Plans are to dig at the bottom of this cave, where fissures can be seen going deeper, so it will end up at more than 5 m deep. Also remaining to be done are more sink digs and a survey and map of all the surface karst, which is really quite interesting and unique for Bexar - Comal region. There are many meters-long, intersecting, linear, solutioned features with depths in some areas approaching 2 m.
