Yarrangobilly Caves

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yarrangobilly Caves are located in the Kosciuszko National Park of New South Wales, Australia. Found by a cattleman, the Yarrangobilly Caves system includes several independent limestone caves formed over different time periods, the older examples being in higher strata and showing a greater density of decoration to lower, younger caves in the area. Administered by the National Parks and Wildlife Service.

According to a plaque at the site, Leo James Hoad was associated with the caves from 1904-1950, serving as the official caretaker of the caves from 1919 to 1946. He discovered the Jillabenen Cave at the site in 1910.
