How does this relate to caves you ask? Well, on my day off I managed to talk some of the guys into going caving in the Jamaican cockpit. I had no idea that I would get to go caving while in Jamaica, so I didn't bring any of my camera gear except for my camera. This presented me with a problem. How was I going to take any cave pictures without my flashes? Hey, maybe I could get the other three guys with me to use their cameras as my flashes. It worked! The pictures came out pretty good considering I had no gear except for a pocket tripod. Thanks to George Hecht (FLMNH), Harley Means (Florida Geological Survey), and Craig Oyen (Shippensburg University). Without these guys and their cameras there would be no cave pictures.

1-2. Caves along the highway near Discovery Bay.

3-5. Discovery Bay has many spring vents that pour fresh water from the karst directly into the ocean. The halocline from these vents is very cool to snorkel through.

6. A large cave seen from the coastal highway between Discovery Bay and Falmouth.

7. George Hecht does the "Drop a Rock Down The Pit" test to check the depth.

8. The view from the top of the hill looking into the cockpit from the town of Seven Rivers.

9-13. Different areas of the cockpit on the way to Windsor Cave.

14. Upper entrance to Windsor Cave.

15. Lower entrance to Windsor Cave.

16-17. Formations in Windsor Cave.

18. The far end of the Big Yard. The passage behind the camera is 180 feet wide and 60 feet tall!

19. Looking down from Jaram Top toward the lower entrance.

20. A whole lot of bats in the Big Yard! This cave is home to at least eight known species of bats.
It would not suprise me if the numbers are in the millions.
