Cliff Cave near St. Louis was gated in October 2009 during the National Cave Gating Workshop. Partners were the Missouri Department of Conservation, St. Louis County Parks, American Cave Conservation Association, Bat Conservation International, Missouri Caves & Karst Conservancy, and volunteers. A new management plan is being written for the cave.
Journeyed through this cave a few years ago before I knew about the bat thing and it was intense! The only way through is a long miserable crawl and when we finally came out the other side we were lost for hours in the woods. The cave has a great and sometimes tragic history.
