Vicki, how about getting a group together and show us the caves? Sue L. I do know of this cave and let me try out a few terms here to see if any of you heard of these. Please share if you know more. Headed out of Dawson on Hwy 62, you go past 'one mile hill' and there is a little creek, immediately after the creek there is a small area just big enough to pull a car off the road. From here you hike up to 'Hunters Bluff' and partway up the trail you will find the entrance to that cave. It is visible from the road. I even went into the first room of this cave once but it was some time ago and my memory is vague. The first area was fairly spacious and towards the left rear there is an area which you can get into but it is lower, like a drop down level. And it is dark once inside, very, very dark, even with a flashlight. It is not like Mammoth Cave where lights have been strung, and the fear of the unknown was greater than my curiously. The view from the top of Hunters Bluff is really spectacular and over the years I have made numerous trips up there. There is another cave we used to go check out also. Shortly after that creek there is a road that heads south towards Claxton. Seems there were some old cabins there by the turn off of 62. If you take this road you will go past Beulah Hill Church and down by 'French Spring Hollow' there is a 'gravel pit'. We used to collect very colorful rocks from here. There is another cave here but the entrance is very narrow. I was only by this cave with my parents and don't remember ever going into this one. I would also like to know if anyone knows about "Ice Cave"? I was by a site just a few days ago that mentioned Ice Cave in Princeton as being a Historical Place. Remember it saying something about the cave being icy year round. Coming from Princeton to Dawson just about the end of '2 mile hill' you can see 'Hunters Bluff' from the road just to the South. I am still fascinated by this place, and would like to know if anyone knows how this came to be called 'Hunters Bluff.' I do think this cave here is caving in. anyone else know about these places? or have information to share?
