Información

A vertical drop into a beautiful cave with many large and finned stalagmites, stalactites and other features. Quarter sized big eared bats. Actively forming cave features that are drippy and wet. Please be gentle with this place, the unrestricted access to this wide cave is a rarity in the USA.

Cómo llegar

Driving here is a little weird. RoadTripRyan's description pretty confusing and GPS gets you near but doesn't tell you correctly which roads to take once leaving the free way. Directions are as follows: You need at least an standard SUV level clearance. The roads were rutted and had many hidden rocks. From parking the car its a 50m walk down a clear trail to a cave with two openings separated by a rock bridge.

Descenso

There is one pair of bolts near the lower cave entrance and two more sets further back. It seems large groups must come through here. It is one rappel about 20m to the ground.

Retorno

Fix the line on the descent so you can ascend / jug / jumar your way out of the cave on your line.
