Exploring Antioch Cave

It's been a while since we explored Antioch Cave. But with little water currently flowing through Onion Creek, this was the perfect time to do it. Antioch Cave is situated on Onion Creek about 1.3 miles west of Buda, and is considered to be the most significant recharge feature within the District.  Onion Creek is the main contributor of recharge to the Barton Springs segment of the Edwards Aquifer. Our Aquifer Science Team (Principal Hydrogeologist Brian Smith, Staff Hydrologist Jeff Watson, and Hydrogeologist Technician Justin Camp) got some great pictures! Check out the video below.
