Welcome to the Official Gem State Grotto Home Page. We hope that you find some going leads as you visit our grotto on the Web. The Gem State Grotto is an internal organization of the National Speleological Society. The Grotto believes in careful preservation and conservation of cave resources.

The Gem State Grotto is a casual collection of individuals interested in the exploration of caves, promoting and teaching conservation, protection and restoration through participation. The grotto is a resource of experience, opportunity and support, promoting growth, responsibility and safety through friendship, fun and adventure. The grotto is a fellowship, we are stewards of a fragile resource.
