Fort Stanton Cave, New Mexico: Science Conference — Socorro, NM

September 17 - 19, 2021

The primary goal of this conference is to gather together the many individuals who have been working on various scientific and related aspects of Fort Stanton Cave (FSC) to share results, cross-fertilize their work with other investigators, and hopefully to stimulate more interest in scientific projects into the future.

We intended to have this conference in 2020 to celebrate the 20^th year of Snowy River’s discovery, but have rescheduled it for September 17, 18, and 19^th, 2021 due to pandemic concerns. It will be held at New Mexico Tech and NM Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources facilities in Socorro, New Mexico.
