117CUEVA DE CARLOS PACHECOcavecavecaveLocation:Description:GuerreroThe cave is located less than a kilometer from Cacahuami1paat about the same elevation and on the southslope of the canyon of the Rio Amacuzac.The cave has a breakdown slope entrance in a largecollapsed sink. Elongation of the cave is semiparallelto the hillside. No eVidence can befound to prove that a gravity-directed, freesurfacestream ever used the cave (Bretz, 1959).The solutional features indicate a phreatic originof the cave. Bretz suggests that the cave mayhave been a part of Cacahuamilpa at some time inthe past. The cave is well decorated and hasroughly 800 feet of passage. It has not beenvisited by AMCS members.References: Mohr, Charles E. Special Supplement - Caves ofMexico. NSS News, April 1950.Bretz, J. Harlen (1955) Cavern-making in a part ofthe Mexican plateau.
