    Bats still dying in N.J.

    Never did wetsuit stuff, but would love to give it a shot some day. Always up for a new challenge, lol. I don't have a lot of access to caves and stuff either but there are plenty of places within a couple of hours of here to practice climbing and rappelling. I am predominately a rock...

    Bats still dying in N.J.

    Vertical access is my thing, hehe! We use a RAD system (grigri, ascender and etrier) and the rappel is great! Up sucks, however..... As a caver, you should probably learn at least RAD, it allows so much more access to places. In the cave below, we found a ledge with a 20 foot drop beyond it...

    Bats still dying in N.J.

    Hey Al! That was my first experience caving in WV/KY. I have been dying to head back down and do some more exploration of the Bowden cave system, but haven't had the time lately. I do know that they tried to dynamite a route from the Bowden entrance to the Bear Heaven entrance but never...

    I sent Indy a message and got his reply this morning.... With his permission I am quoting it here... "Hi, Maureen! The disease (or whatever it is) is alive and well and has spread as far as Oklahoma as of earlier this year. :-( Huge jump that can only be attributed to human carriers. And it's...

    Bats still dying in N.J.

    Al, as a caver also, we went as far as Kentucky to go caving and were still on the fringe of the WNS a year ago. At this point, you could go into the caves and had to make sure your ropes and gear were "washed". From what I hae been made to understand, the bigest spread is from cross...

    Apple Pie Hill Has Been Closed To The Public

    You are right on the money Guy. We were up there today and wound up talking to one of the FFS guys that patrol the area. He said that they do not mind the normal tourist-y groups but that those signs (put up by FFS) will give a legal standing if they need to start issuing tickets and...

    November Pine Barrens Happy Hour

    Just what I was thinking! BYOF...bring your own food! Maybe we could call them in advance and ask if we could hold some sort of "potluck" or just see if it is OK to order a pizza or something and have it delivered there...
