Summary of site:
The entrance to the cave is at the foot of a cliff in a large, wooded shake hole. A descent down a rubble slope leads to a large chamber within a jumble of large boulders. From here, a further descent of loose boulders leads to a precarious mass of jammed boulders perched above what appears to be a small chamber. This is a dangerous cave, best left to experienced speleologists.
