This event was hosted by the WVG and it was quite a hit! It featured "Bob's Vertical Caving Workshop" by Robert Johnson, WVG Vertical Chairperson; "Let Sleeping Bears Lie: Archaeology in the Dark Zone of Lava Tube Caves in Southwest Washington" by Cheryl Mack, Gifford Pinchot National Forest Planning Team Archeologist; "LIDAR - A New Tool and Concern for Locating Caves" by Matt Skeels, Oregon High Desert Grotto Chairperson; "The Sandy Glacier Caves Project: Documenting 14 Trips to the Caves" by Brent McGregor, Famous Photographer and Cave Explorer; and "Lava, Lava Everywhere: Lave Caves in the Solar System" by Hester Kate Mallonee, Geology Scientist educated at Boise State University.
The event also featured an newly revised guidebook with the addition of many new caves and full color pages and glow-in-the-dark t-shirts both edited and designed by Lisa AM Bauman, WVG VIce Chairperson/NCA Secretary and Graphic Design Specialist educated at Portland State. Khalvin Cook, Koch, Bauman, and Dennis Glasby wrote the articles in the guidebook.
Claude Koch was the Event Organizer and Trip Leader for many sensitive and protected caves in our area. Sandy & Gerald Zimmer managed registration and meal plans. So many more people helped in this amazing event that haven't been mentioned. Please feel free to share your story in the comments.
