Entrance to the cave is pretty straight forward; you will arrive at the back of the cave once you walk up the small rock walkway. If you wish to view the ruins, keep to the right ledge and walk straight out of the cave. The ruins are still in good condition, but do not touch them or run your hands over the rock walls!

The Subway Cave in Boynton Canyon is a very popular attraction.
You can take very nice photos and films here.
The ascent and descent in the fissure is a bit triggy. There is an easier climb to the left of the crevice and to the right of the cliff top Indian dwelling. However, to get into the Subway Cave afterwards, you have to walk around the ledge and be free from giddiness.
I became aware of the Subway cave through the following very nice YouTube video and it became my number 1 destination !!!
