Nevada is a mysterious place which has a lot of opportunity for exploration and discovery in the geologic world.

There are some places that have been kept to secrecy for the sake of protection and preservation to keep caves in pristine condition and held to a high regard to scientific study.

One section in particular has been giving up clues to more caves with every visit that has been made into the desolate region.

On the most recent visit, a new discovery was made to a cave right on the ridge.

I named this cave, Natural Arch Cave since it has a very interesting arch above the cave and the entrance pit is right under the arch.

I climbed down into the entrance of the cave and continued to climb down the hypogene passage for about 50ft of depth until it came to a standing room.

Unfortunately the cave ended and there was not much more to the passage

The Ridge was hiked and checked above hidden lake cave and no other caves were found.

There were additional leads spotted with the drone and future trips will take place to continue the search for caves within this area.


I am anticipating that one day, another large cave will be found within this area and will be documented accordingly.

Until than, the search will continue.
