Morning very high wind, much snow blowing and probably some falling. Went into several more caves: Thunderbolt (which connects with Polyrinth), Catacombs, Lateral, Indian Leg, Four Cory in Indian Leg, two of which we found and released in Muchpoot, and a total of Cory taken from Lateral and Thunderbolt. At least 3 others seen over a high ceiling but out of reach. Benson saw a Myotis subbulatus hanging bat awake in Thunderbolt.
