Caving International Magazine was published by a group of Canadian cavers. It's mailing address was Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Lots of photos and maps, some photos in color. Nice, slick covers.

Looking inside Issue No. 1, Peter Thompson is the Editor and Publisher and Mike Boon is the Assistant Editor. Just a really nice magazine with hours and hours of good reading.

I will consider selling this to Canadian cavers, BUT, they MUST pay full postage. (You guys screwed me once.............but not again !!!)
