With years of water running underground this cave was formed

The power of water

So how does this water get underground to create
caves

Sink-holes

So why does the sink-hole form?
Years of weathering causes rock to erode and creates caves
Or the cave ceilings collapse and the hole occurs above ground

So what is the purpose of the sink-hole
To allow water to have a direct root to the underground water system

Although is stream is small it is the stream that cut out the cave.

Water has caused these rocks to break up
