Helmet camera footage of Sinks of the Roundstone, in Mt. Vernon, KY, April, 2007.
The actual video quality is much better in the original video file. For some reason, there is a reduction in quality when the file is uploaded to YouTube (don't know why).

  • Where is this entrance? I've been in the "main entrance" according to the Sinks map, but I need to know where this entrance is.

  • I would recommend checking with your local grotto. They can tell you where the 2nd entrance is.

  • I'm so glad you put out this video. Now I will have to go there. I have some property in mt. vernon, and the neighbor has a cave which contains a very narrow ledge to walk across, and then on either side you can NOT see the bottom, even withsome extremely powerful lighting...scary thought. Ours contains an overhang similar to this one, but you can not enter, too small. It was used as a refridgerator in the 1800's.

  • I am a mamaber of the Dayton caving club, and enjoy shooting video of my trips. I am coming down Dec 15th to visit a cave in the Mt Vernon area. I have a portable light that could probably reach the bottom of your pit (8000 lumen, 75W HID). Maybe we could hook up and you could show me the caves.

  • how come you didn't stick up close to the group it woulda been interesting to see what they were saying. also whats spelunking?

  • "spelunking" is a slang term for caving

  • i thought caves had stalactites/mites? i guess this fits the geologic definition?

  • 4:30 that path looks epic! Reminds me of the movie The Descent! hahaha

  • @gusterson

    whats is the cave named it sounds like millers pill two owned by a very nice old lady

  • been in there too lol

  • I fell in this cave (at the spot about 6 minutes in) and severely sprained my ankle.

  • The GPS coordinates for the big entrance are N37 20.074 W84 14.481. This is correct.

    The coordinates for the 2nd entrance(after doing some research) are N37 20.020 W84 14.011. I haven't personally tested this one, but I think it's pretty close.

  • Can you give any GPS data or map to the entrance you used in this video? It is very different than the entrance I regularly use yet we both start out walking down railroad tracks.

  • i lived in mt. vernon for a long time i know some really good caves that you guys would prolly like to go into...
