DESCRIPTION:James Cave is located in Edmonson County\, Kentucky a few miles
  south of Mammoth Cave. The cave is an anomaly in the region due to its lo
 cation and complexity. Formed in Bald Knob at the southern edge of the Dri
 pping Springs Escarpment\, the cave's passage density is significantly hig
 her than in other caves in the region. There are 10.5 miles of surveyed pa
 ssage under approximately 30 acres\, developed on five levels and both hor
 izontally and vertically complex. Exploration by organized cavers began in
  the early 1950s\, was very intense in the 1960s and 1970s\, and continues
  at present. During the 70 years since exploration began\, cavers have had
  to adapt to the concerns and requirements of five different property owne
 rs\, while cave surveying and mapping techniques have evolved exponentiall
 y. This presentation will focus on a description of James Cave and the yea
 rs from 1955 to 1985.
