Cave surveying trip to Mystery cave?

From: Houssam Nassif, Vertical Climbing Chair

Hello cavers

checking if someone would be interested in a surveying trip to Mystery cave.
If you are interested, plz reply back so we can plan a trip

Mystery is a large cave in Southern Minnesota.
Surveying is the process of drawing a map of the cave, it involves drawing sketches and taking measurements. It is a fun process that will teach you a lot about caves and caving. And will give you a whole new look and feel about caving. You will start looking at caves from a different angle.

Beginners are welcome, but this should NOT be your first caving trip. One (preferably more) prior caving trips are mandatory.
We will split into a few surveying parties, according to the skill levels of the cavers. Areas available range from easy to very challenging.
If there are any who desire narrow, sheer walled, terror laden challenges, we've got some of those available too.

We should leave madison saturday Nov 7th, early morning (6:30?)
We will cave all day, and sleep probably at Warren's house (bring a sleeping bag and a mat)

We will drive back to Madison Sunday morning.
