Classified Cave #3

Classified Cave #3 is located in Southern Ontario in the vicinity of the Niagara Escarpment. This cave was brought to my attention a few years back by S. Ensminger. The main chamber has roughly 80 square meters of floor space, and has a few spots to stand up in. The cave is flooded most of the year and is best explored in the late summer dryness. Special thanks again to S. Ensminger and T. Maigret for the pictures and map.

Just inside the down stream entrance. The dot of light in the middle of the picture is the main entrance.
The dam is just in front of the ledge of rock.
