Have I missed something, or is there no mention of this on the forum?? Just in case: 17th Symposium of Volcanospeleology is being held in Hawai'i next year (Big Island).  http://www.cavepics.com/IVS17/index.html Big Island is a well-cool place, the volcano is almost permanently active, and...

Hi all. Current camcorder (panasonic HDC-SD1) is seriously suffering from cave-and-volcano-induced-traumatic-stress-syndrome and need replacing...  :weep: Just interested in what today's favourites are?  Interested in both point-and-shoot types (like the SD1) and in more professional grade...

Hi all. Did a trip down Masson Cavern last night.  There were lots of cars parked up by the Jug Holes layby, and also some up the farm track closer to Masson Quarry.  Our group had official access via the show cave entrance, so when we arrived we didn't take the time to see who was parked up on...

Hi all! Managed to get some quite nice photos whilst furtling around some of the lava tubes on Big Island, Hawaii last year.  I'd be most interested if anyone can throw any light on what minerals are colouring the stal (I have some ideas but they could easily be wrong!) and whether the deposits...
