I read with interest your posting the other day from a Colorado caver. I too am a caver. Our grotto is in Arkansas, and I can tell you that MONTHS ago, when the “white nose fungus” was still only in the eastern states, ALL federal agencies in Arkansas closed ALL land under their control to ALL caving. This includes fish and game, U.S. forest service , fish and wildlife, the National Park service (over 400 known caves just on the Buffalo National River), and even the nature conservancy. At that time, and still yet today, there is absolutely NO evidence that there is a human vector involved, yet they closed them anyway, with criminal penalties for going in one. I believe that this was merely an excuse to keep all people out of all caves on all federal lands. I agree with the Colorado caver……..this is B.S. They don’t want people finding potential places to hide or cache, in my opinion. R.
