That makes sense. I was actualy stating the common names over the years. It was an extreamly early tourit attraction. I really don't know what made it so well known. I have never been in it and I understand at one time it went further back then it does now.

Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.

The "Poo" area is up the ravine from Elsie. It appears that from time-to-time folks from the nearby Girl Scout camp have refreshed the paint and the signs. You can access it from below with some boulder hopping. And take an empty trash bag. There is always litter in the area by the caves. The main cave is very hard to find unless you know where to look. And it's a very tight fit.

I was out on a ride over the weekend and talked to a lady who had visited the caves when she was a kid. She is planning on taking her kids there sometime this summer.

Y'know, Nietzsche says: "Out of chaos comes order."

The caves aren't exactly Disney-like nor safe for wee kids. And the poo area is or was last year, rather tired and forelorn looking. But it's a pretty area between two lush meadows.

Great directions Dennis, cool place, and your right I have ridden past it hundreds of times. Going to go back and explore a little more another time. Next time I’ll take a bike lock and an additional pair of shoes. Carbon sole bike shoes aren’t the best for hiking.
Got some pictures, I’ll post them in a day or so.

I don’t condone defacing forestry land in any way, shape or form, however, this has been there for awhile. That doesn’t make it any better, but I found it kind of interesting.
