Introduction: The Allure of Oregon's Underground
Oregon, a state renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, towering forests, and pristine coastlines, also harbors a lesser-known treasure beneath its surface: an extensive network of caves and underground formations that beckon adventurers and spelunkers alike. The allure of these subterranean worlds lies not only in their natural beauty and geological wonders but also in the mystery and thrill of exploring spaces few have ever seen.
Spelunking, or caving, offers a unique perspective on Oregon’s diverse geological history. Each cave tells a story, carved out over millennia by the relentless forces of water and time.
