IN MEMORY OF OZ HAWKSLEY by Dwight Weaver The founders of the Missouri Speleological Survey (MSS) are gone! First it was Frank Dahlgren of St. Louis, a few years back. On March 31, 2017, Jerry Vineyard passed away. And then on September 6, 2017, we lost Dr. Oscar “Oz” Hawksley. He was 97 years old. The year 2017 has been a tough year for those of us who knew these men, caved with them, camped with them, canoed with them and admired and respected them. More than 60 years have come and gone since they began inspiring and educating young and ambitious nature lovers and Missouri cavers to endeavors of accomplishment. Oz was born June 30, 1920, in Kingston, New York, to Robert Hawksley and Gertrude Edwards. After Frank Dahlgren, Oz Hawksley, Jerry Vineyard serving in World War II he obtained a Ph.D. in ornithology at Cornell University. Oz then taught biology and zoology at the University of Central Missouri in Warrensburg (formerly known as the Central Missouri State College) from 1948 to 1979. As an enthusiastic outdoorsman he founded the Central Missouri Outing Club in 1950.

"During the digging we hit several large formations (stalagmites and drapery) that had formed centuries ago. Because rock and rubble had fallen in on them and then this had all been cemented together by further drips tone deposit, the digging was much more difficult. OUT digging began in late October 1978 and was finally complete about December 28 and then tunnel construction be- gan. We then faced contractor problems.

    THE GRAND CANYON 1 Postcard Panoramas The Grand Canyon Where the Earth Splits Open All Ages • Arizona POSTCARDS JUST DON’T DO JUSTICE TO THIS CLASSIC AMERICAN PAN- orama—this majestic 277-mile-long canyon of the Colorado River, an enormous primeval gash in the earth’s crust. Gaze down into its depth from the rim and you’ll see striated bands of multicolored rock, a living history of geologic periods unfolding at your feet. Descend into it and you’ll pass through no less than four distinct climate zones, as if you began your day in Mexico and ended it in Alaska.

While it’s awe- some indeed to gaze around from the rim, something about that monumental chasm makes me long to climb down in. There are any number of hiking trails, from 7 to 9 miles long; if taking on the river is more your style, check the park website for a list of approved commercial outfitters that run 3- to 18-day rafting trips, from placid floats to heart-stopping whitewater thrill rides. Perhaps the most memorable way to explore the Grand Canyon is to pick your way down the steep, narrow trails on the back of an ornery mule. The best options for kids depart from the North Rim and are offered by Canyon Trail Rides (& 435/679-8665; www. canyonrides.com). These rides range from 1-hour scenic rides along the rim to half-day trips (either a longer rim route or one that heads 2,300 ft.
