Bergren Cave and Waterfall

This is the Bergren Cave area near Calico Rock. It's a horseshoe shaped bluff-lined hollow that hides three caves...one which has reportedly been mapped very deep (5 miles). The horseshoe is a good 200-250 yards across at the open end and about as deep. This place is truly awe-inspiring and has a rich history which I may get to share as I've been invited to hear some of the yarns about the place next time we get over that way. So watch this space!

And here's a short vid-clip to give you a grain of an idea of the magnificence of the place!
I want to give a word of thanks to the landowner, who graciously allowed our eager little crew to view this special spot in Izard County...heck...the world!
I also want to give a hat-tip to BBanzai, who told me about the cave. UPDATE - For years, the EIC Crew was under the impression that this was the area of "Needles Cave". It was not until we were invited to see Bergman Cave that we became aware that it is not, afterall, "Needles Cave" . Needles Cave is not far from Bergren Cave, however, and is actually only a very short walk from "Bergman Cave" I know. Confusing, right?
