After some computer setbacks, here are our inquiry first results about Noël pot hole frequenting.
It concerns the visit's sheets from 01/04/1993 to 10/03/1993.
We received 70 sheets, among which 24 correspond to A.R.S.P.A.N. members and consequently we didn't take them into account for the statistics about protection (corrected facts).
Here are the results :
average number of cavers by visit : 4,69
average time spent underground : 10 h 03 ( not many answers !!!)
any other group at the time : 24 %

- REMARKS & CONCLUSIONS :
We don't know the percentage of cavers who answered our inquiry.
From now on the sheets will be numbered to compensate this disadvantage.
The visit regulation seems very effective ( 5 cavers / visit) and appreciated by all.
Knowing the visitors' origin, it will be useful to inform (stand , publication...) these cavers first.
The reason to visit seems very clear : Walk & Photos.
We find that in the distance covered : main, upper, white passages.
In view of the bat crabwalk's frequenting (33 %), a serious marking must be quickly put in place.
The marking disturbs only some photos.
We saw very beautiful photographies with marking.
Perhaps we must give time to our eyes to get used to it ?
For the protection and efficacy the figures speak for themselves ....
We must continue overall that 2/3 of people seem ready to help us ...
