This is one of North America's most prehistoric places -- DEVIL'S DEN -- an underground spring inside a dry cave. The remains of many extinct animals from the Pleistocene Age (2 million - 10,000 years ago) were discovered at Devil's Den, including the bones of early man, dating back to 75,000 B.C.
The pleasant year-around temperature of 72 degrees in the Den allows comfortable diving, winter or summer. On cold winter mornings you can see steam, like smoke, rising from the cave's chimney. Hence, the early settlers called the place Devil's Den.
You'll find open water and cavern diving at its best and will be fascinated by the rock formations with stalactites and 33 million year old fossil beds - truly a natural wonder.
All divers must be Open Water certified, sign release, have proper training, and follow rules and regulations. Snorkelers are also welcome.
You do not have to pay admission, or sign a waiver to access the cache.
This was originally a cache called Devil's Den (GCPVR7), which was archived. If you found that, you'll have no trouble finding this one.
We have permission to place this cache on the property.
For the FTF - a $5 bill along with a FTF Certificate.
**THE FTF GOES TO: imtomcat CONGRATULATIONS!**
