My buddy who is a caver, tells me that snakes tend to stay near the entrance of caves, he does not find them much beyond 5 or 6 feet of the entrance. If you need someone to explore cave, the Bexargrotto group is always looking for holes to crawl down. PM me if you cannot connect with a caving group. Austin also has a group of cavers.

cool story
Originally posted by dragonsdaddy View Postin 1967, my dad and i were javelina hunting over easter break about 30 miles n of comstock and had the opportunity to explore a cave known only to the few ranch hands. we drove across a pasture until we came to a dead cedar growing out of a 10 foot deep 8x8 ft hole. after chunking rocks at a snake, we climbed down the tree. the snake rudely returned (of course he really never left) and was dispatched. we then were directed to crawl thru a slot along the floor which was like crawling under a car. on the other side was an almost virgin cavern that went on for hours. we went from room to room and found skeletons, clear crickets, bats, and markings on the ceilings that had been left by indians. the guide told us of a bigger cave on another part of the ranch that had water in it. he assumed the 2 were connected, but couldn't prove it. it was truly one of the coolest things i have ever done. don't pass up the opportunity to do the same. just be careful and be prepared for the many possible issues that might come up. it gets seriously dark down there.
