- A permitted work trip was made into Ogle Cave for the purposes of changing out radon monitors and re-flagging the trail. Ogle has a 180-foot entrance pit and one of the tallest columns in the world. It also has many guano mining relics that date back to the early 1900s.

What a stunning cave. Thank you for the video look at this wonderful under the earth marvel.
Thanks so much for the video. Not only is this unique footage that few people in the world can capture but it’s high quality as well and allows us to see more of nature than we previously thought existed.
Quite a gem!
Absolutely stunning! Magnificent video of a cave system I shall never be able to see in person (but wish I could, with the utmost respect for preservation of all the beautiful formations)! Thank You for sharing this incredibly awesome excursion into the Earth!
Hell Yea, More Caving Vids!
I'm always amazed how different and otherworldly the Carlsbad caves look compared to our Kentucky caves.
I've lived in Carlsbad most of my life...I met a guy from Kentucky that worked for the US forest service and national parks. He lives in Carlsbad now. He once told me about mammoth cave "compared to the Carlsbad Caverns, its just a big hole in the ground."
Well a 400+ mile long hole in the ground that's an exceedingly complicated three dimensional maze but yes lol@@shaunoftheguads
@@stevemollett6866 I took it as a compliment, won't keep me from visiting mammoth if I get the chance!
I got that I was just joshing. Always wanted to get out there and up to Jewel and lots of other places. All caves are unique and awesome but I'm well past my sell by date so watching the generation that followed mine on RUclips is the only caving I do now.@@shaunoftheguads
Its always a pleasure when you upload!
Really nice video Derek, Thanks for taking us along
Happy Holidays to you and the Family
you're back! Thanks for another great video
Miss you some what regular updates.
I know it’s not a cave, but can we talk you into doing a vid on the slaughter canyon petroglyphs?
Impressive cave! Wish our caves looked like that.
Beautiful
Absolutely stunning. Required a bit of work to get in (and out), but what a reward you achieved.
Thanks for redoing surveys/flagging and situating the radon monitors. I've been trying to work with the environmental 'authorities' in Queensland to do similar in National Park caves and have been knocked back in favour of recreational and scouts cavers. It's very frustrating.
I've been to this one. Years ago. But I took the tourist entrance not the grand entrance you guys took.
Love the music
how neat
Love the footage, interested in what you have to say, but hate the music
Unelected bureaucrats issue or refuse to issue permits based on their whim. So much for a government by the people for the people etc. Face it. We’re serfs. The only reason you were allowed to have this adventure is you were willing to do the scut work of the people who take a tax payer funded salary to be doing this. Instead, they sit on their asses and get you to do their job for them in return for allowing you to go to a place that, as a tax payer, you technically own.
This type of uninformed rhetoric helps no one and is not true in this case. Learn the facts before you troll other folk's efforts to entertain and educate the public. Not issuing permits for backcountry caves at Carlsbad National Park was not the decision of the park staff but a problem with the original management plan that was drafted many decades ago. They are trying to amend it so that folks can once again enjoy the wild caves in the park.
