Leah moved to North Dakota when she was 12 years old and has traveled from the Red River Valley to the badlands and many places in between. She loves small-town life and currently enjoys living on a small farm in the ND prairie. She's always had a passion for writing and has participated in novel writing challenges such as NaNoWriMo multiple times. Her favorite part about this job is recognizing small businesses that deserve a boost and seeing the positive affect her articles can have on their traffic, especially in rural areas that might have otherwise gone overlooked.
North Dakota doesn’t have many natural caves, but what few caves we do have are full of mystery and fascination. One of the most notorious of these caves has a mystery that we still haven’t figured out more than a century later – and probably never will. Discover what makes this spot in the prairie so unusual and has kept people guessing for years.
Please note: while this cave used to be accessible, it is now on private property. You can no longer visit the cave, but can speculate respectfully from a distance.
What do you think happened? Is it all just folklore or is there reasonable evidence that a great escape did happen through the Medicine Hole? This isn’t the only fascinating underground place North Dakota has, there is another from more recent history that you can actually visit. Check it out right here!
