Yes, it's just locations in and around Springfield. If I remember correctly they're just markers on google maps with descriptions and pictures if you click on the marker. I'd love to get my hands on it again, I use to have it bookmarked but lost it. It would be a lot easier to use now that I have a smart phone.

l3ol3slost: You might find this resource helpful: http://libremap.org/data/state/missouri/drg/ and here is the key: http://www.topographicalmaps.com/100k.mgi?state=mo

Lots of caves aren't published, but there are plenty to play with listed in the topos.

If you're living in MO, start asking around. You'll find some.

Besides going with people from here, you could join a local grotto too. Such as these folks.

They are a great way to get into a lot of caving.

Attention All:

I am briefly making the map publically avaliable agian. I wont leave it up forever, so grab it and save it while you can.

As it was the first time around; please be responsible in how you use the map and who you share it with...AND if this map leads you to fantastic adventure, and you know of some caves in the generaly vicinity of the map that are not on it, please send me some coordinates so I can add it and go check it out.

Thanks
