Cadomin Cave, Limestone cave in Whitehorse Wildland Provincial Park, Canada

Located within Leyland Mountain at 1890 meters elevation, Cadomin Cave contains spacious passages connected by narrow crawlways beneath the Canadian Rockies.

The first formal survey of the cave occurred in 1959, leading to mapping of the upper series passages and the central chamber named Mess Hall.

Indigenous peoples knew about the cave long before prospectors arrived in the early 1900s, during the mining exploration of the Coal Branch district.

The cave remains closed since 2010 by government order to protect hibernating bat populations from the spread of white-nose syndrome disease.

The Alberta Speleological Society discovered additional passages in 1977, extending the cave system to 2791 meters in length and 220 meters in depth.
