Explorer sees potential cave system near Cedar Rapids Iowa
University of Iowa student Steve Barnett believes Cedar Rapids area could host a substantial cave system informed by features seen at Coldwater cave in northeast Iowa. He cites soluble limestone deposits, elevation changes, sinkholes, and numerous cave stories as indicators of underlying caves. Barnett dug near Indian Creek hills and found a shaft and room before shifting focus to college studies and Iowa Grotto, which later led to Coldwater cave discovery with partner David Jagnow. Horse Thief cave southeast of Cedar Rapids is the only known local cave with entry sealed off.
