¶ General Information
Caves are unique environments containing features that may be both sensitive and hazardous to visitors. For the conservation of the caves and for personal safety, cavers require specialized knowledge and equipment, and these are best obtained through involvement with the organized caving community. Cave rescue in western Canada is organized through the Alberta Cave Rescue Organization (ACRO) and the BC Cave Rescue Service (BCCRS) which are jointly known as the Alberta BC Cave Rescue Society (ABCCRS).

¶ Recreational Caving
Recreational caving groups are another great resource for information about safe caving practices and to join trips with knowledgeable cavers. In western Canada the recreational groups include – the Alberta Speleological Society (ASS) and the BC Speleological Federation (BCSF).
