Beauty Cave - Craters of the Moon Cave Trail - Cave Entrances (Natural) on Waymarking.com

This was once a part of Boy Scout Cave. But after a huge collapse it got separated and now forms an individual cave called called Beauty Cave. The very first part is difficult and only for cavers, but the next collapse is an entrance to the cave. However, the official entrance (see coordinates above) is at the far end and much more comfortable. It uses a bigger collapse forming a spacious entrance to the lava tube. The cave is 100m long and has two spacious sections of about 35m, which are connected by a tight crawl. There are several narrow off-branches, one of them leading to the deepest point of all caves. For exploring narrow parts and the crawl, we again recommend, old and warm clothes, sturdy shoes and a hard hat. The entrance chamber with its smooth pahoehoe lava floor may be visited without special clothes. We think this is the easiest entrance of all the caves along the Craters of the Moon Cave Trail.
