Last year I found a long tunnel in the chloride hills but wasn't able to check his site before it disappeared to see if it was on there already. Given the crumbly nature of the chloride hills, I was too chicken to climb through by myself. At least 40 feet long I would guess, with some windows in it, but it went around a corner so I can't say much more. Anybody know if this is a known spot?

If Steve wants to turn his content into a book or monetize it some other way, that's great! However having a free site that keeps track of the known bridges and other major features would sure be useful for us explorers. I seem to remember there were a few "unconfirmed" bridges that people sent him that he listed on his website and now that information is gone. It would be a shame to have lost stuff like that.
Hell, maybe I'll make a new site to keep track...
Yes, that formation was on Steve's site. I remember emailing him about it since it was in a TR of his but not on his Natural Bridges page; I can't remember why he said he didn't add it to his bridges page.
I think a DV natural formations database is a great idea!! I've thought of adding such a page to my website but never had the time. I'd be happy to share info on the natural bridges etc. I'm aware of if you or anyone else on here decides to make such a database; just please be patient with me I'm a graduate student currently on the job market, and it seems I'm always busy with that or catching up on other responsibilities.
