The Virginia Area Region (VA, WV, MD, NC, & part of TN) and the Pennsylvania Cave Conservancy both maintain a restricted cave access list which includes not only closed caves but open caves as well in my area. But I don't know of any list that includes open caves for your area, the TAG region (AL, TN, & GA). The best way to find out what caves are open is by getting involved with your local grotto which for you would most likely be the Huntsville Grotto. On their website they have 2 caving trips scheduled each month (a vertical and horizontal one). The SERA Cave Carnival (held in Huntsville from May 30-June 1, 2014), the NSS Convention (held in Huntsville from July 14-July 18, 2014), and the TAG Fall Cave-In (held near Lafayette, GA from October 9-October 12, 2014) are all great opportunites to get to know what caves are open in the area and to get on trips to caves.
