Not until the summer of 1957 did the spelunkers dream come true under Walter Grocholski’s farm,
Section 28, in Presque Isle Township.  Presque Isle County when Arthur Poch of Rogers City with his
brother Lyman, and friend Ted Crawford, had the courage to be lowered deep into one of the mysterious
cracks.  He reported that at about 40 feet depth he entered a real cave 150 to 200 feet in diameter
complete with stalactites and stalagmites, a trickling stream and a waterfall.  Is it the beginning of a
Michigan Mammoth Cave?  Will its thin roof cave in and form another huge sink hole?  It's virgin territory
for the speleologist.
