Murphys' Cave #1and #2Surveyed 1988-1991 |
 |
Jacque discovered Murphys' Cave #1 during a ridgewalk in
1988. He actually discovered a small downstream resurgence that we
pushed early in the year. Much to our surprise we went from dire water
crawl to known cave, and came out a different entrance. This proved to
be Murphys' Cave #1 and found Murphys' Cave #2 next to it.
After some discussion we found Gary Bush had done some original mapping, but after a large discovery, we remapped the entire system. The two caves are still unconnected. We do know the system is connected to Smokey Caverns (below) Murphys Caves - Then and Now.pdfBad Times in Watertown A 1988 article from the electric caver |

Homestead CaveSurveyed in early 90's |

Found by Jaque Ramey, this cave location has possibly been lost. Notable as it had a pit entrance, and a water crawl exit. The bore hole passage terminated in a terminal dome complex. This is a great example of Jeff Strebas' cartography, but unfortunately little more data survives | |
