of Texas Creek and is
about half a mile north
of Warm December
Cave.
From the entrance
one has about 25 feet
of crawling before
the canyon achieves
walking height. This
nice stream passage
stays about 6 feet tall
for about 400 feet
where it terminates
at a 12-foot-tall
waterfall near a
historic signature area.
There is a tight canyon
passage at the top of
the waterfall that may
be pushable.
In the 1980s the
cave’s upper canyon
was first entered and
many bones were
noted in the area.
Entry to the upper
canyon can be made
midway down the
walking stream canyon
via a tight upward
canyon squeeze.
A visit to Texas
Creek Cave and
nearby Warm
December Cave
can make for a very
enjoyable afternoon
of easy caving and
hiking in the woods.
During convention week cavers may access
Texas Creek Cave and Warm December
Cave by parking on private property near the
caves. After the convention please contact them
