Fern Cave continues to grow and set new records as the longest cave in Alabama and one of the greatest caves in the United States. This year the survey has proved to be more difficult and tedious, but new connections and discoveries continue to be made and plotted. As the map fills out the complex nature of this cave continues to unfold. Historic routes in the cave to well visited areas like Helictite Heaven are proving to represent only a portion of the passages which lie therein. Come join us as we highlight the fourth year of the Fern Cave Survey Project's exploration, survey and newly drafted maps.
