Tythons Gate cave is another new Nevada cave that has a unique twist to its character. What's interesting about this 150 ft cave is that you walk a ridge to a near knife edge into a breakdown shelter that continues into the mountain and back out to a walking ridge, avoiding a cliff.

Reminded me a bit of the Zion Mt. Carmel tunnel and highway in Utah. I am sure past civilizations have used this cave to connect to other areas of this range as an access point.

A few artifact remains tell a story of this cave's ancient use case.
