This e-mail goes out to anyone that might have any good advice or recommendations about caving in Mount Vernon, KY. I will be attending this years Karst-O-Rama, and was wondering if anyone has been caving in that area. This is my first convention trip and am looking forward to it. I noticed Mount Vernon was host to the 2001 NSS convention. So maybe someone has been there for that or other past Karst-O-Ramas. If so can someone offer any advice for cave trips that would be good for me to keep an eye out for. I am very agile and am looking for something that can offer a bit of a challenge, although I am not a vertical caver so that would be out for now until I can get some experience and training in rope work. So if anyone can offer some advice and recommendations that would be great. Thanks for any info.
Jason.
PS if anyone has any knowledge about where I can turn to to get some training with vertical rope work in the Chicago land area, that would be awesome to. Thanks.
