Ive come across little caves like this before and I always wonder who seeked shelter in them thruout all the centuries, wish we could see back thru the life of the cave. You can picture an ancient person crouched in same spot you are, maybe waiting out a rainstorm.
Doan Gag, 5 brothers and 1 cousin and other members not related to the family. 1 was shot, 2 were hung. That leaves 3 of the family and unknown other members alive. the war ends, whats te 1st thing your gonna do.
I love this park, a girl from my highschool jumped to her death here I believe in 2009 or 2010. It was such a tragic day in the community, so confusing why she choose such a brutal way to go. She jumped right off the cliff :'(
Doan gang, 5 brothers 1 cousin and some hanger ons occasionally. 1 was shot, 2 hung, 1 escaped n 2 pardoned. If they buried anything you can bet the survivors dug it up. But ya never know.
I know the area well & you did a great job navigating your way around the valley. A couple of the Doans are burried nearby at the Plumstead Friends Meeting Cemetary (outside of the back wall)
Beautiful place.thank you for the experience of seeing such a beautiful place.
Doan gang and their caves sounds like the James gang, if rumors were true and they slept in as many places as said, they wouldn’t have had time to rob trains and coaches.

When we were in high school we had a doubled-up rope with knots in it that took up the entire back of a van we would walk up to the high rocks throw it over the edge and put our leather gloves on ready for a fun climb. The rock-climbing guys would tell us we were crazy and we were not well equipped we would always say "what am I going to let go of the Rope" hahaha so young and crazy we where.
Couple of things: Doan’s Cave is not in Ralph Stover SP, it’s on Haycock Mt, on private land. I found it over 35 years ago but didn’t have the equipment (or knowledge of the history then) to explore it fully. Contact me if you want the exact location and how I know it was Doan’s Cave. You’ll find it…interesting. To put it mildly.
Also, that albino cannibal nonsense wasn’t on Haycock Mt, that was on Ghost Mt in nearby Pleasant Valley east of Rt 212. There was indeed a family of albinos living there in the 60’s-70’s. They were a little weird, but not cannibals.
LOL! No more than any other white folks, any way.
I was told one of the dogs in the original ‘Lassie’ TV series is buried up on Ghost Mt. That, I don’t know for sure is true.
Cool vids, man! Thanks for sharing!
At 5:36 right where you are standing, that’s where I caught a 12 inch rainbow trout when I was a kid with my dad. I remember an albino catfish there too. Some dude across the river pulled in a huge catfish. That scenery totally brought me back haha.
Bucks County’s treasure is its rich history. We’ve got Revolutionary parks, and a lot of colonial history. People should take a weeks vacation and explore our beautiful county.Next time you’re in the area go to our ringing rock park. Bring a hammer and tap on the rocks. You’ll get a cool sound. Don’t beat on them or you might break them
You’re awesome! I live in Beaver Springs, PA. My mom was always super into treasure hunting and metal detecting when I was growing up. Her and I will go for a treasure hunting adventure soon.

The area is correct in the 45 acre small park but the location of the old cabin was near the cave which was formed on a bend in the creek near cliffs. If you find the cave, a metal detector can find the buried cache near to this cave.
Hi, I’m glad. You found the cave you were looking for. Who knows maybe that little hole is hiding a cloth bag full of silver coins just saying would that not be great?your very interesting and I love your videos .heard you mention RAIN 🌧 on the way . Heck it wouldn’t be Rainsylvania with out near everyday letting off the stuff , Have you ever been to Penn cave and wildlife park? It makes for a nice day my grandson and I spent the day there this past summer we both enjoyed it a lot .
wandering woodsman. have you considered voicing over the audio?
would give you a chance to chance to improve with a second take…..
give more time of exploring
Thanks, I loved this place when I was young.
I believe the second Doan cave you described as being sealed with a rock is near the Centre Bridge Inn, a few miles south on River Road..
Wow I really enjoyed that, what stunning views and those rocky outcrops are really incredible. So pleased you found the cave think you loved that. Thanks so much for taking me along
That could be Doan cave and the other one is Do cave
Jim Doan reporting – give me back my treasure!
Please stop almost dying… I really enjoy your videos and want you to keep making them. Be careful!!
Beautiful place, but hard to call that tiny little thing a cave. But I guess technically it is. Maybe. Ha ha ha

Over here on my side of the state it’s Robber Lewis the Robin Hood of Pennsylvania and Braddock’s treasure among others.

There was also a kid that fell off the high rocks

Did you ever go to Crystal cave, or Indian echo cave.

What’s a geocache?
Watch – Out For Bats !! Maybe you should smoke them out before entering …. ‘ just in case ‘
You are not far from where George Washington got his Durham Boats to cross the Delaware.

At the end of the video…. high rocks….. I rock climbed a lot of that

Thank you for this! I didn’t come here to find this but I’m going to have to check it out. We also lost our youngest son to drugs. ;(

You always find the best locations, and give the best history lessons!
