Shannon County Discoveries

The video below was put together by Derik Holtmann of the Meramec Valley Grotto and Cave Research Foundation.  CRF mappers pushed through a low lead in 2012 which led to a large upper level breakout in a remote Shannon County cave.  The video shows Derik going through an ear dunk when water levels were low and then shows a break out into a large room which was disovered on the trip in 2015.
