Cathedral Cave, Nevada

Cathedral Cave is a Nevada cave that exceeded expectations — a short hike to a large entrance leads into mostly walking passage with abundant decorations throughout. Junctions lead left and right into gallery passages with wall formations and column formations at the corners.

Continuing up into a tighter section, the passage opens into a highly decorated room full of formations and an interesting flowstone structure. The main corridors show no signs of human use for quite some time — a well-preserved cave. More formation galleries in the back. Although Nevada caves tend to be small, Cathedral Cave is rather impressive for the region. Looking forward to checking this range further for more caves.
