I ram across an old post by chilly that talked about a cave 50 yards north of a site on Winchell. If live to see a cave, chilly or anyone else care to enlighten me on the whereabouts? I know that caves up there are very small, but would still like to see it.

I can't tell you the campsite number, but their is a cave just behind the campsite on the western point as you go from main Winchell into the big bay on the way to Omega. If I were any good with pics I'd send one, but I'm computer illiterate.

From what I recall it wasn't a man made cave and not something super amazing buy any means but was kinda neat. It was small, maybe 20 feet long and 6 feet high? A trail from the campsite mentioned will take you right too it but like I said it isn't something to go out of the way to see. Just more of a neat little cave type thing very close to the campsite. I will look to see if I have any photos of it.

Cool, thanks. We will be on Winchell anyways, so I think we'll stop by and take a look.
