What are your favourite caving websites?

[bubba]

I never seem to find much decent, any ideas?

 

[SamT]

this one of course :wink:

others are Hitch n Hike, cave diving group, OUCC site. Anywhere that is updated regularly.

 

[Huw Groucutt]

yeah OUCC is good, and i like www.cavinguk.co.uk.

The Speleoclub Avalon site has some really really good photos - http://users.skynet.be/sky75112/avalonuk/galleries.htm

Virtual OFD is interesting - http://www.pcw-1.co.uk/ogof/

And of course a shameless plug for - http://www.dur.ac.uk/speleological.association/

I like some of the Aussie sites, such as http://wasg.iinet.net.au/

Also www.speleomania.com has a lot of potential; I like the world news clips.

 

[Huw Groucutt]

i forgot: www.speleolabs.com

The route descriptions on this are excellent:
http://www.braemoor.co.uk/

Memoirs of a Moldywarp is a good read, and useful for descriptions of caves in the N of the Yorkshire Dales (cue for everyone to jump up and tell me it's not Yorkshire any more that far north)
The picture on the 'front' is good too.

A plug for our club website:

www.hongmeigui.net

Loads of stuff about caving in China.

 

[bubba]

There's some great pics in there - well worth a visit:

That's a particular favourite of mine; it's looking up the 284m entrance pitch of Da Keng (lit. 'Big Pit') in Tian Xing. The second pitch, which is only about 30m from the base of the first, is 'only' 215m.

<plug class="blatant">
We're currently working on our first club journal, which ought to be ready in time for the China Caves symposium at the RGS and the Hidden Earth conference. 32 colour pages of photos, articles and surveys from Tian Xing, where we've explored what are currently the three deepest caves in China.
Should be around six quid a copy.

http://www.c**tplaces.co.uk

:twisted: A good rival (all in good fun of course) to ukcaving.com..

 

[bubba]

There's so few good caving forums on the web that there's more than enough space for us all....and you've got about 1500 pics - nice one!

This might be of interest to someone -- a history of Aberystwyth Caving Club I recently uploaded:

http://users.aber.ac.uk/club06/history/

it's a lot to download, but an interesting read I think.

 

[bubba]

I won't ask what this one's about

and I think there's a murder going on in the background:

 

[Deep-Penetration]

With so many good caving sites in the world i have to be a little self obsessed and say that my own is (going to be) one of the best, It started about 5 years ago as a personal site with a few pics and stuff, then slowly transformed as i got to grips with web design and stuff. Then in july this year i got my very own server and the site became what you see today, and in the 3 months that its been online has attracted quite a bit of interest.. Have a look round and let me know what you think..

Also i have one of my early ones where i display some of the findings from the OCC 2002 Berger expedition, www.caving.tk

If anyone would like to advertise their survey on www.cavesurveys.com I would be pleased to facilitate it.

Shepton have placed a few on from thier trips to Thialand, and I've put on my surveys from Gozo.

The surveys are purposely knobbled to allow viewing to a limited extend but still encourage the purchase of the original survey to get the full detail.

I would certainly like to know that there is a survey for an area I'm going to and where to get it from - that is the aim of the site.
