Eagle Lake Lava Caves
Robert Given

Abstract

Tracking down caves which persist in local legends can be rewarding work...IF you find the caves. The author set out to find one cave, spurred on only by the name of an obscure lake on a California map. His search led to three caves, each an interesting link in the growing chain of known lava caves which dot the speleological map of the Far West. Eagle Lake lies about 70 miles south southwest of Lava Beds National Monument in northern California.
