unless we have to) the permanent access road is going to need to be built.  The cave has actually had traffic!!  Probably the first non-survey trip went into the cave for about a 6 hour trip in February, and another sport trip is coming this spring!  I"m glad to see folks using the cave.  These folks have experience, call ahead, and plan ahead.  Very nice.  Couple other notes: Reports from those surveying in the cave (which has not progressed too much lately for various reasons) are that Heaven isn't looking much worse than it was a couple years ago, but one formation with a handline over it that is nearly unavoidable is getting mucked up.  I'm trying to hint to folks to avoid that route.  Also, the cable ladder I believe is out of the cave.
