Bearcat Caves — 5 Comments

  1. We don't have a GPS but we found the caves yesterday using your instuctions and mini map!  Thanks so much for posting this great place to explore! 
    Have you ever hiked Castle Rock Hoodoos Park?

    • I wrote an article on Castle Rock for Gold country and I explored there too. There is a small trail on the right side of the hoodoos that follows a gully up to the top and you can explore the top area from there. I don’t think of it as a destination hike, but it is a good stop on the way to Deadman Falls, which has a nice shorter hike along the rim.

  2. A friend and I found what we thought were the caves, but it turns out they may just be separate openings. They were fairly narrow, and straight down. We followed the blue marker tape into the bush, although we didn't actually find the opening that the picture on this page shows…it must be further in. Either way, we'll be back there soon to check out the actual spot, as well as spellunk the narrower holes.

  3. was working in the area and discovered bearcat caves – very cool and worth checking out -my partner wants to come back and spend 4 days scoping out the whole hillside- that is overkill but finding ice and snow on August 20th only 30-35 feet down is pretty unusual – I am not into repelling but that is the way to really see the deep spots – stay safe
