Please consider a contribution to Support exploration in Friars Hole Cave System.

Background

Brian spent many years exploring and mapping in the south end of Friars Hole. He also worked to preserve the history of exploration in the system by scanning log book entries and collecting stories of other's explorations. The cave and the preserve were some of his favorite places. Brian often talked about setting up a fund to support exploration in Friars Hole. So it seems fitting that this be part of his legacy. Donated funds will augment funds from his family to support ongoing exploration and documentation efforts in and related to the Friars Hole Cave System and the Friars Hole Cave Preserve.

Funds are being collected and disbursed by Sandra Preaux, Brian's wife.

Updates

Update from June 26, 2023

Last week, we provided the exploration groups with funds for a bolting cache to facilitate climbs of numerous domes that were recently discovered in the south end of the cave. Brian would have been very excited by the new discoveries!

Once again, thank you all for making this possible!

Update from April 18, 2023

We just provided the first funds to the Friars Hole exploration project team by upgrading the digital archive account from a single user to a small team license for the next year. This will make it easier to maintain a current line-plot and map of the cave, share exploration trip reports and it increases the amount of storage available for digitized images and other records in the historic archive. Thank you all for making this possible!
