Woman Rescued From Cave Says She Will Return In March

Emily Mobley, who spent four days trapped in the nation's deepest cave until her dramatic rescue, said she'll return to the New Mexico cave next year.

''If I am physically able to be, I hope to be back there next March,'' she told the El Paso Times in a telephone interview from her home in Schoharie, N.Y.

Mobley's left leg was broken March 31, when it was struck by a 90-pound boulder that dislodged when she grabbed it. She was 900 feet below the surface of Lechuguilla Cave when the accident happened. She still is using crutches.

Mobley, 40, was a member of a mapping expedition into the cave, which is in a wilderness area of Carlsbad Caverns National Park in southern New Mexico.
