History of Cave Exploration in Wayne County, Kentucky
, Auditorium

Wayne County, Kentucky is home to significant cave systems — including Grayson Gunnar Cave, Redmond Creek, Spelunger and Bowman's Cave — all on private land. This presentation tells the story of how a dedicated group of cavers built the landowner relationships that made access possible, and honors those who led the way and made it all happen.
