That would be the “Diamond Horseshoe.” See page 406 in 50 Years of Texas Caving (the encyclopedia of Texas caving). You should have a copy in your library.
===Carl Kunath carl.kun...@suddenlink.net -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: David Sent: Sunday, April 29, 2018 9:07 PM To: CaveTex Subject: [Texascavers] Caverns of Sonora There are 3 or 4 cavers on this forum who have actually gone caving in Caverns of Sonora - especially if you call "hauling out rocks," as caving. I once was shown a rare picture of some unusual speleothem off-trail in Sonora. There were similar, but different pictures in the books about Texas caves and the Texas Caver. My very fuzzy memory was the speleothem resembled a large onion ring or a horseshoe or both, but I may have it confused with the other off-trail photos, since I haven't seen it in 30 years. The speleothem and passage area both had a special name. I had an opportunity once around 1986 to go off-trail in NBC, and blew it off, thinking I would get another chance someday. Some of you might have been on that trip. I assume that part of that trip is now what the Wild Tour visits. I do sincerely apologize for contributing to cavers leaving CaveTex, but I went out of my way to ask cavers politely to ignore me and just hit the delete button. I have no nefarious or malicious agenda, just bored out of my mind way out here beyond the Edge of the Caving Universe.
