The 1996 Speleo Digest
This 514-page compendium of American caving in 1996, containing over 300 articles by over 200 authors, is a font of wisdom for cavers everywhere. Have a huge ceiling to measure and distance triangulation is getting you down? The Party Machine can help! Read all about this alternative way to measure ceiling heights in caves (and, in the same article, what to do when the Imodium you took doesn't work fast enough).
The 1996 Speleo Digest contains descriptions and maps of 299 caves, most of them new discoveries, from across the country and around the world. Imagine the horror of exploring Millipede, Groundhog Carcass, Cockroach and Dead Goat Caves and empathize with the dashed hopes of the surveyors of Fixin'-to-Die Cave, Illusion Pit and Still-a-Short Cave (or, for a more pleasant read, speculate about the naming of Bat Love and Climax Caves). Perhaps the articles about Baby Head Voodoo Cave and Cave Of The Not So Very Distant Shoes will pique your imagination as well!
Fear not, we didn't forget to include Lechuguilla, and all the cave art and cartoons you'd expect in such a tome, as well as entire chapters on archaeology, biology, conservation, caving equipment, geology, history, hydrology, safety, lighting, locating caves, photography, surveying and vertical caving.
The ever-popular fiction and humor chapters may be the biggest ever this year with a cavers' songbook and powerful writing on the experiences that bind us together -- those we seek and those we fear in the depths of our souls.
Brand new this year is a chapter on paraspeleology. Want to know the *real* reason caves are dark? The truth is out there in the 1996 Speleo Digest.
