Thought I would post a photo and see if anyone could guess where it is? It's a well known horizontal cave in Tennessee. This section is known to be near the "back" and is visited often. If you don't get it I will provide more clues. bob biddix Innermost Imagery innermostimagery.com

I don't have a clue on that one Bob. I could guess but I'll wait to see what others might say first. I bet you burned up a few flashbulbs taking that photo though! Big room!

Hey Bob, was the cave once mined for saltpeter?

You might be right Lynn. Matter of fact you are! Past Echo Hall and down to the lower borehole you will see this siphon hole. Past this are many nice formations and easy walking passage. Good job on identifying this area! bob biddix Innermost Imagery innermostimagery.com

Here is another to guess where this cave is. No hints this time other than it is well known. Any guesses? bob biddix Innermost Imagery innermostimagery.com

We may need a hint on this one. But in the mean time here's my best Guess. Is it Devilstep Hollow Cave?

All good guesses but not quite. Here's a clue. It is in Tennessee and often cavers make the through trip to a lower entrance. Also, this picturesque entrance is NOT the one most often used even though it is part of the main system. bob biddix Innermost Imagery innermostimagery.com

Woo Hoo YEA! Yes, this is the Alph entrance to Xanadu Cave. Even though most of the known cave is in another entrance this one is the most photogenic. bob biddix Innermost Imagery www.innermostimagery.com
