Re: [Texascavers] Caves near Van Horn ?
https://goo.gl/maps/h47hh8E8jXR2 Thanks Bill, that is probably it.Except I do not know how far the capsule landed from the official landing pad, nor in what direction. Surely not more than 20 miles, as it goes almost straight up and straight down until the final parachute on the capsule opens. There is an interesting geological feature ( similar to a sinkhole ) just north of the official landing pad at these coordinates 31.473731, -104.794393 On Sun, Apr 29, 2018 at 2:11 PM, Bill Bentleywrote: > Near Cave Peak and or the 10,000 year clock. > > On Sun, Apr 29, 2018, 2:03 PM David wrote: > >> In this morning's landing video of the Blue Origin capsule, there is a >> large rock shelter in the video >> to the left of the capsule in the face of the cliff about 30 seconds >> before it lands. >> >> Is that a cave ? >> >> Does the feature have a name ? >> >> Surely it is mentioned in the Caves of Culberson County.Right ?? >> >> Approximate coordinates of rock shelter ( within 20 miles ) >> >>31.425144, -104.892122 >> >> >> That was such an awesome launch.

[Texascavers] Caves near Van Horn ?
In this morning's landing video of the Blue Origin capsule, there is a large rock shelter in the video to the left of the capsule in the face of the cliff about 30 seconds before it lands. Is that a cave ? Does the feature have a name ? Surely it is mentioned in the Caves of Culberson County.Right ?? Approximate coordinates of rock shelter ( within 20 miles ) 31.425144, -104.892122 That was such an awesome launch. Had I known about the launch a week ago, I would have made a bigger effort to go to Carlsbad, and then swing by the launch to view it. I am definitely going to add that to my bucket list for 2019. It was a bummer not being able to go to Carlsbad. I had a ride offer part of the way. But I just had to stay closer to home this weekend. I should finally have some work next week, and eventually some pocket change.
