Found something cool
I was checking my property and found this. The void is about 200 feet long and an unknown depth. Helluva way to go.

Re: Found something cool
Are you a caver, or know any? Some of my old friends live to find places like that. Does it blow cool air?

Re: Found something cool
Would it be possible to fly a small illuminated drone down in there?
That might be safer than a human climbing down in.

Re: Found something cool
You may have discovered a new cavern system like Carlsbad caverns.Here in Washington,just south of Mt. StHellens a dozen miles or so, is the Ape Cave. They are volcanic vent tubes formed thousands of years ago. Those caves go for many miles underground. I have been down one for more than a mile.
Once my dad fired off his .41 magnum under there, it liked to defen us all and the echo went on for a long time.

Re: Found something cool
West Virginia is certainly famous for caves. If I was with someone who was better than myself at rigging ropes, I would go down it. If the air coming out is warm, it may just be a shallow system. Are you over limestone bedrock?
Re: Found something cool
A little off topic, but did you have any damage from the flooding?

Re: Found something cool
I'd bet that bats may be using that place as a roost site. Some of them are important consumers of insect pests. Check it out some evening around sunset and shortly thereafter. Flash photos would be interesting.
