Every trip participant must read and understand the cave's access requirements. The Trip Leaders must have each participant sign the cave access agreement hard copy form and have a copy of it with them on the premises during their visit. Each participant must willingly agree to comply to the requirements. Those groups that don't follow the requirements may lose future access and/or be cited for trespassing.

EMAIL ADDRESSES: Why do we ask for email addresses from the participants? We plan to start a newsletter of Blowhole and Nutty Putty Cave news and caving events and we want all of our participants to be included by receiving future issues.

PERMISSION SLIPS (MINORS ONLY): Participants under 18 must have parents or legal guardians read and sign a permission slip showing their consent and agreeing to pay for any damages and/or expenses related to rescue, extraction, and medical attention needed during the cave visit.

WAIVERS & MEDICAL RELEASE FORMS (ALL PARTICIPANTS): Every caving participant must complete the waiver and medical release forms. The waiver release liability and the medical release ensures prompt medical attention in an emergency.

VERTICAL CAVE: The Blowhole Cave is a vertical cave that requires participants to know how to descend and ascend with mechanical devices. The BSA does not allow novice cavers to enter vertical caves. Special training and experience are needed before the BSA will authorize vertical caving trips.

WARNING: Caving is risky and all participants do so at their own risk and agree to release all liability to the cave land owners, The Cave Access Manager, and the Cave Management Team.
