I've being hearing about this cave for a while as it held a geocache a while back and more recently is the site of another, as well as an Earthcache (GC2DRV1 and GC2HD0H respectively). The other day my buddy Bworm and I decided to do the cache and had some fun spelunking. The cave is located just to the left of the Cat Trail, an abandoned, yet well groomed rail line. As you approach the cave entrance you'll see where the front was artificially blasted out to allow water to come through. This unfortunately means that some of the caves are filled with water. The cave (and entrance) you'll be looking for can be located on the left hand side of the tunnel about 25 feet back and is the second cave entrance. The first is often filled with water. The only was to get into this is on your stomach, but when in, you can crouch somewhat. I'd recommend knee pads and gloves, oh yes and a bright headlamp will help immensely. If you decided to go for the cache, you can check out the cache pages to see what your looking for and what you're in for. The day we came the water was high and I had to walk through knee deep water to get to the entrance. You can comfortably enter about 25 meters into the cave, so have fun and be safe. Oh yes, the cave has no name and isn't managed by anyone, so in the spirit of everything zombie, I gave it the tongue in cheek title.
