Take nothing but pictures,
Leave nothing but footprints,
Kill nothing but time
The Kansas Speleological Society Respects the
Stewards of our Cave Resources

   The K.S.S. believes landowners and cavers must work as partners in the continued exploration and conservation of Kansas caves.

   Landowner permission is a must for entering a cave. Any K.S.S member entering a cave without landowner permission should not consider themselves as acting in any official capacity of the K.S.S.

   Landowners and other interested persons are asked to contact the K.S.S. if they know of sinkholes, springs, pits, wells with running water at the bottom, or cave entrances. K.S.S. members can assist landowners in identifying cave and karst features and water resources.

   If you've ever wondered what's "in there" or "down there," contact the K.S.S at: kss@caves.org

Join the NSS!   The K.S.S. is formed as an internal organization of the National Speleological Society and was officially chartered on May 30, 1984. Visit www.caves.org for N.S.S. membership information.
