Missouri Speleological Survey President's Message October 2018. Despite the foreboding forecast of biblical rains, the Fall MSS meeting at Current River State Park was a great time. Before the weekend began, we had a long list of objectives and a sizable group of cavers expected to come, as well as ambitious plans for a large map and gear display for the public. Weathermen across the region however, conspired to keep people home with predictions of heavy rain throughout the weekend and flash flood warnings across the state. As the weekend drew nearer, the number of cavers bowing out increased by the day. Nevertheless, while it did rain all day Friday and poured on us during the drive down Friday night, the rest of the weekend was fairly dry and beautiful. The Current didn't rise, so one small group monitored caves via kayak and a much larger group went to Echo Bluff State Park to work on graffiti removal, left over the Camp Zoe events, as well as to perform a bio survey, per request of the park, to see whether the cave closure had any noticeable impact on the presence of cave life.

Our spring board meeting is quickly approaching on the weekend of May 3-5, 2019 at the Ozark Underground Laboratory (OUL) in Protem, MO within Taney County. The focus of the weekend won't be the board meeting itself, but rather to kick-off a resurvey effort of Tumbling Creek Cave to make a complete, up-to-modern-standards map for use within a GIS platform. Tumbling Creek is a roughly two mile long cave and home to a rare cave snail. The idea for the project was initiated by OUL owner Tom Aley and then further encouraged by Scott House. This will be an open project of the MSS, so those willing to actively help in the survey are welcome to attend. No experience is needed to participate, but an interest in learning is a must. If you have question about the cave trip please contact me at [email protected] Other caving opportunities will be available within the nearby Mark Twain National Forest for those who want to do their own thing.

  • 2005 MO Cave Comm.Pdf
    Caves and Karst CAVES AND KARST by William R. Elliott, Missouri Department of Conservation, and David C. Ashley, Missouri Western State College, St. Joseph C A V E S are an important part of the Missouri landscape. Caves are defined as natural openings in the surface of the earth large enough for a person to explore beyond the reach of daylight (Weaver and Johnson 1980). However, this definition does not diminish the importance of inaccessible microcaverns that harbor a myriad of small animal species. Unlike other terrestrial natural communities, animals dominate caves with more than 900 species recorded. Cave communities are closely related to soil and groundwater communities, and these types frequently overlap. However, caves harbor distinctive species and communi- ties not found in microcaverns in the soil and rock. Caves also provide important shelter for many common species needing protection from drought, cold and predators. Missouri caves are solution or collapse features formed in soluble dolomite or lime- stone rocks, although a few are found in sandstone or igneous rocks (Unklesbay and Vineyard 1992). Missouri caves are most numerous in terrain known as karst (figure 30), where the topography is formed by the dissolution of rock and is characterized by surface solution features. These include subterranean drainages, caves, sinkholes, springs, losing streams, dry valleys and hollows, natural bridges, arches and related fea- Figure 30. Karst block diagram (MDC diagram by Mark Raithel) tures (Rea 1992). Missouri is sometimes called “The Cave State.” The Mis- souri Speleological Survey lists about 5,800 known caves in Missouri, based on files maintained cooperatively with the Mis- souri Department of Natural Resources and the Missouri Department of Con- servation.

Missouri Speleological Survey- President's Message November 2020 by Dan Lamping I'd like to share a graphic that Shelly Colatskie put together with MSS data provided by Ken Grush. It shows that 72% of the documented caves in Missouri are privately owned. Yet the data we have on the 23% of caves owned by state and federal agencies, far outnumbers that which we have on privately owned caves, which accounts for nearly 3/4 of the known caves in the state. This is a major area of potential improvement for us as an organization, to expand upon the knowledge and information we have on privately owned caves in the state since there are over 5,400 of them. We have the data to build off of and the means of sharing it with capable cavers, interested in knocking on doors and hitting the hillsides, hollows and sinkhole planes with GPS in hand. But we need those willing people, who will follow through with expanding upon the data by writing descriptions, directions, reports, etc. and sharing it back with the MSS to catalog.

    Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science (1987) Volume 97 p. 247-252. Current Status of Natural Areas Listed by Lindsey, Schmelz and Nichols in Natural Areas in Indiana and their Preservation. John A. Bacone and Michelle L. Martin Indiana Department of Natural Resources Indiana Division of Nature Preserves Indianapolis, Indiana 46204 Introduction More than eighteen years have passed since the inventory of natural areas was completed by Lindsey et al. (1). This inventory was statewide in scope, and as such, was one of the first of its type in the nation. The inventory was funded by a grant from The Ford Foundation. In the preface, Gordon Harrison of The Ford Foundation noted that the inventory provided a basis for assigning protection priorities, helped to prevent destruction of natural areas through inadvertence, and was intended as a guide for those able to work toward saving some of what was left. In the years following publication, its significance has been demonstrated. Today, 18 years later, over half of the 155 areas listed in the study have at least some measure of protection, and only a handful have been destroyed. Compilation The files of the Division of Nature Preserves provided the data for this report. Information in these files came from years of field surveying by Division staff and many other natural area workers. Results Each natural area listed in the main body of Lindsey et al. (1) was categorized according to its current protection status. Highly protected areas (Table 1) include Table 1. Natural areas that have some type of permanent protection.
