This might be me being daft as I have not visited it in 15 years until today, but...
I think Ribblehead cave has collapsed. When I was there I had assumed I was in the wrong place, that there must had been some near by hidden shake hole I missed in the field near the barn. But now, having read carefully the description and map I think I was almost certainly in the right place (though I could not check the SD as is misprinted in NC having only 5 digits). I was there for a good 10 minutes and could not find a way underground, so I wonder have both the upper and lower entrance has collapsed or was I just being blind? Can anyone who knows the cave confirm? Unfortunately, I did not take any pictures at the time as I assumed I was just in the wrong place.
This is the correct shakehole?
