    Thanks guys! Spectacular find. I would be interested in seeing if you find more about the history of these caves. Ron is entertaining to watch and listen to.

    Family had massive acreage near Lowville NY since the 1880s, about 2000acres...Hand planted pine forests, a river, fresh ice cold springs, glorious hills and all!
    Last gen of uncles kids just divided it and sold all away, they all hated it.. Sad, Im watching your vid and the stones, the ground , the trees, the rock moss!!!
    Its all the same as I remember long ago! TY for showing! I can almost smell all the pines, hear the crunch underfoot and the breeze whisper through the branches.

    I found these in the early 90's.The first time I checked them out I heard a low growl from one of the caves and got out of dodge lol. The hike looping around Folly and over the dam is a favorite, thats how I found it just followed a faint trail off the dam.. There's so much great stuff off trail in that area and around MT A.

      @@josebro352 not even close. South of Mt Agamenticus There’s a dam between Folly pond and Middle pond. It’s off to the east of that a few hundred yards. Small trail leading to it from the dam. Hard to describe coming in the other way.

      @@josebro352 not my video, I just commented. If you are good with maps try to figure out on trails how to get there from the east. If you come in from the west you’d have to walk over the top of the dam or go over the stream below it. Be a longer trip too.

    I am so glad you put this out there, now all that is needed is a parking lot and hiking trails so the woods can be ruined like My. Aggy. The porcupine, fox, bobcat, bear, and coyote can find new shelter.

    I think they should contact a archeologist like the ones on because these rocks are squared off as if it was a resalt in stone work and they look like they were dumped in a big rock pile which is strange because there so huge. What could lift them even our technology today could not do that but they look constructed. Giorgio A. Tsoukalos is the best one to contact if anybody knows how.
