Goshute Cave
Elko County, Nevada

Lately, caves have been getting some bad publicity due to some unfortunate accidents. If you're like us, you love adventure, but you're not too fond of the idea of being dead. So with that in mind, we can tell you that, yes, we did take children with us and, yes, everyone survived. Travel at your own risk. The most dangerous part of this adventure was the hike up the mountainside to the opening. See the bottom of this page for location information.

Here's the dangerous part.


The really dangerous part (just kidding).

This guy rode his ATV here all the way from Twin Falls, Idaho... His dog is half coyote.

Where is Goshute Cave? Look on your Nevada Gazetteer for the Goshute Range in eastern White Pine and Elko Counties. Then, ask around. The grotto keeps directions to itself for important reasons, not the least of which is your safety.
