Memory Cave

Alright so I don't think Memory Cave is the right name, but we've never ben there before and it hadn't looked like anyone else has either. Me Jake and Logan named this cave Memory Cave because a lot of different experiences going to this cave. We found this cave randomly one night while parking by the first damn and hiking up a gultch on the right. As you hike up the gultch it will split in two, make sure you go up the left so you dont have to hike as much in the end. Both ways will come to a big rock cliff. When you get to the cliff you will need to follow the bottom to the left again. The cave entrance will be in the side of the cliff about 50 yards down from where you first got to the cliff. The entrance has two openings, and upper and lower one that both meet right away. The cave is about 15 feet long and the other side comes out in the middle of a cliff, BE CAREFUL! In the middle of the cave there is a small opening that turns into a big cavern. One night when we came here in winter last year we found a couple bats.

If you try finding this cave be sure to bring clothes to get dirty in because the path is really steep. If you come in winter make sure to dress warm. It is really fun in winter because when you want to leave you can pretty much slide all the way down on your butt. Be careful though, you tend to haul a**!

  1. I had no idea the canyon had so many random caves. How far down is the first dam that you have to park at?
