Austin Nature Day is April 15, 2006! Get Down, Underground! Join the Texas Cave Management Association and the Barton Springs/ Edwards Aquifer Conservation District for a trip into southwest Austin's Whirlpool Cave. This two hour easy (but on hands and knees) caving trip gives you a first hand look at one of the many karst features that helps make our aquifer one of the most bountiful and sensitive in the state. Space is limited, and reservations are required. Ages: 6 years and older (children/ young teens must be accompanied an adult) Times: Trip One: 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Trip Two: 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Cost: $10 per person for gear rental (helmets, lights, elbow and knee pads) Attire: Participants should wear old clothes and long pants. Please call Jennee Galland at BSEACD at (512)282-8441 to reserve your spot.
