Foreman Cave/Mine


Foreman Cave is known to many treasure hunters since it was shown in George Thompson's book "Faded Footprints" about Utah's lost gold and treasures. While this is not originally a mine, this natural cave has been mined and more recently someone has put in a lot of effort to clean out the debris from the bottom of the pit.

This is the upper entry.

This is taken from just inside the lower entrance. The upper one is directly above the square hole in the framed platform.

Shane climbed down the old,wet and rotting timber with the aid of a hand line to investigate further. Where Shane is standing is about a 10' pit approximately 15' across. At the bottom of that pit is a short passage that is filled with water. Perhaps on a dryer year we could get to see the extent of this one.
