We went on a bike ride today. Stopped at Red Oak nature center to see the cave and do a little exploring.

I didn't know they had a cave there! Is it big? Can you go inside?

It's pretty small. Yes, you can go inside. There is a little area to crawl in but we didn't have a flashlight so we didn't want to go crawling in there.

The cave has a history/story. It is called devil's cave.

Eric found the story about the cave online..."An Indian Brave that was banished from his tribe for stealing. He tried to get his revenge on the tribe by covering himself with a blanket and glowing fungus. He would try to scare his tribe by acting like a ghost on dark nights. One day the tribe found his footprints. They waited for him to return and chased him into devil's cave. There they ... Read Moresmoked him out. He ran out and jumped into the river, unable to swim he drown. The ghost is seen to this day in and around devil's cave. The cave is easily accessible from the trail at the Red Oaks Nature Center."
