I know it is not strictly on cave diving. But there are apparently some dry caverns/caves in Ocala. Can anyone point me to that or tell me about them?
Thanks,

Try FSS or TBAG. There are more dry caves in the Ocala area than you can start to imagine. Ocala Caverns is always fun for a swimOriginally Posted by MengTze
Call the NSS and get the Grotto chapters for the area and dig in!

There are 3 kinds of people in this world; those who are good at math, and those who are not.
Great minds think alike.

Sorry to be a late poster...definitely contact the fss and maybe send Jason Gulley on this board a pm. He took me to a couple in ocala (briar and the catacombs) where he is doing hydrological measurement. The fss does organize access. Bill Huth

Heard you spoke to Robert. I saw Steve gave his work numbers -- LOL -- his mom got a kick out of your call.
Robert is 100% first class and amazing to cave with! Don't try to keep up with him crawling -- it is impossible.
He mentioned Ocala Caverns for you guys when it is no longer sumped...Fun place and enjoy!
