<center><h2>University of Leeds Speleological Association</h2></center>
<p>ULSA is one of the bigger and more active of the UK's University caving
organisations, and incorporates the (strictly undergraduate) Leeds University
Union Speleological Society. Most famous for the large amount of new
exploration arising out of an ambitious program to resurvey many of
Yorkshire's significant caves in the 1960's, the club has continued to find
and survey new cave at home and abroad. The club also has a deserved
reputation for high quality publication.
<p>Encouraged by contact with Gunther Graf, ULSA visited the Tauplitz area
(east of CUCC's area) in the early eighties. A great deal of shaft bashing
was done, but none of the small sub-horizontal draughting entrances which are
the most promising on Loser were investigated. The expedition high camp was
flattened by a snow storm, and a degree of demoralisation set in. The trip
was written up in <b>ULSA Review 16</b> (CTS ref. 86.1980), but no return
trip ever took place.
<p>ULSA has its
<a href="http://www.leeds.ac.uk/union/socs/speleological/home.htm">own
website</a>, upon which old publications are being put as and when they
go out of print.
