    These man-made caves are a part of an old sand mine used to harvest sand for glass making. This trail can be difficult for some hikers because it begins with ascending (and then eventually descending on the way back) a steep, slick rock. This is a very popular area to explore, due to its proximity to the highway. Hikers can expect to see dozens of other people on this short trail.

      It is the cave with the finest sand among all the caves I have visited

        The climb is a bit difficult and only for sure-footed people.
