RESTRICTED CAVE ACCESS LISTS

The following links below include caves in the MAR Region (Pennsylvania, and Maryland) that are known to have access restrictions placed on them. Limited access to caves in New Jersey are not included.

With the ever growing number of restricted caves within the Region, it should be obvious that ALL cavers must practice the usual rules of caving courtesy. Please, be sure to obtain the owner's permission before entering any cave. One of the main reasons caves become restricted or closed by landowners are due to past incidents where individuals did not ask permission. Good land owner-caver relations are crucial for keeping caves open for the enjoyment of all !

Note: These lists are updated from information received from cavers like YOU and from other various resources.

If you are familiar with the access status of "ANY" cave within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, please let Tony Canike (Philadelphia Grotto) know of its current status. Please send any additions, corrections, deletions, or comments to Tony Canike, acting database steward of the "Pennsylvania Cave Database" at tony@canike.net  Email or at (215) 362-8292 and/or the various county stewards, which can be viewed on the Pennsylvania Cave Conservancy (PCC) website.

All updates for caves within the state of Maryland should be sent to the maintainer of that list, as requested on their website.
