I went back down to Orange county with Mark Kraus to do some surveying and scoop more of Hackney.  We met up with Mark Deebel on Saturday who was going into Critchfield Spring Cave to work on a promising dig (I haven't heard back from him yet but expect they found more passage which could potentially be walking.  The dig is an overflow route with strong airflow and was trending towards a lower stream crawl).  Mark Deebel had Mark and I survey what he said was a 200' cave.  He must have mixed something up because it turned out to be 40' and we had to work for that.  I got to practice sketching again and sketched a nice map of the small cave.  After that we went to Daniels.  We were a little concerned that it was going to rain but wanted to get started on the Daniels survey anyway.  It started raining as soon as Mark went down the ladder into the pit entrance.  I got to stay upside and draw the entrance and take the shots down to the cave floor while it poured down rain.  Lightning struck very nearby and was really, really loud.  The survey continued.  The first couple hundred feet were a pain to sketch because the passage was adjacent and connected in two spots to a large breakdown room.  Then we started pulling in long shots and got the crawl and a good deal of water passage done.  There was a current in the stream neither of us remember and we quickly exited the cave to find we'd been in for 4 hrs and the sun was setting.  The water hadn't risen any.  We called it a night.
