Hello from SoCal

Postby eDiver » Oct 11, 2010 12:15 pm

Hi,
I am Alberto (aka eDiver) from SoCal.
I am a diver, but not yet a caver ... thinking about cave diving :shhh:

I am very much interested in finding info on maps (with lots of info) for underwater caves so we can create 3D models for our simulator.

So far we are working on the Emergence du Ressel cave.

Quite a cave and quite a story, too. This appears to have been in 1999 or so.

Welcome to cavechat Alberto! Hello from the Philippines!
Please tell Mdm. President Betty and Daniel that the Red Horse Beer is chilled waiting for their consumption. :beer30: :egyptian:
Balincaguin comes from the Zambal phrase, "Bali lan caguing" meaning "house of bats."
This was the former name of the Municipality of Mabini, Pangasinan, when it was part of the Province of Zambales (of Mt. Pinatubo Volcano fame).
