Public reluctance in this group makes sense from what I've heard.
Here in Oregon, the central part of the state has a particular
abundance of lava tubes (no scoffing,  please; they do have a certain
charm and lots of variety, particularly in a state largely given to
volcanism.)  A number of the prettiest and scientifically interesting
tubes are now kept off all maps, many are barracaded with lock and
key and security door.  This is all a result of the a--holes who
vandalize these places.  South of bend is a well known ice
cave that provided the area with ice for refrigeration for many years.
The city of Bend used to hold ice cream socials at the cave.  Now,
so many people have used the thing like a latrine that the ice is 
distinctly yellow and smells abominably.  However, if you know the
right people and can convince them that you have a bona fide interest
and are of good character, the caves are accessible.

What I'd like to see from this group (at least) are tales, experiences,
wonders, close calls, etc.  This can be done without compromising
cave secrecy.

Who's next?
