Finding a Cave Caves are easy to find. You probably know of some already. Later on, you ll want to find some new ones. Here s how to do it. Go outside just after sundown and hang around a street corner, looking around for bats.
Bats like to fly around street lights, and as everybody knows, they live in caves.
When you find a bat, just keep him in sight. Around dawn, he ll head for home and lead you right to his cave. My friend Billy, who went looking for caves one night and must have found one, because he never came back, told me about this trick. I never have gotten to try it, because my mother won t let me stay out past dark. One of the best things about spelunking is that you don t have to spend a lot of your allowance on equipment to get started.
