[edit] Easter Chamber

Near the entrance, there is a long crawl followed by a squeeze that leads to a grotto followed by Easter Chamber. [1]. Easter Chamber has lots of boulders and a few pools and formations. From here, some passages lead to the little man formation, which is directly below the tomb of the cabell family.

[edit] Entry Restrictions

People are generally not allowed to enter Reeds Cave, but some entrys are permitted during the summer months. Reeds Cave was once connected to Bakers pit but the connection has been filled in with concrete. Because of entry restrictions, the cave has become an important roosting sit for Greater Horseshoe bats.
