Origin[]
The Cave of the Winds was a natural cave behind Bridal Veil Falls at the Niagara Falls. The cave was located one hundred and thirty feet up, one hundred feet wide and went thirty feet deep. Discovered in 1834 it was originally called Aeolus' Cave, after the Greek god of winds. Despite it's location in upper New York the winds within the came feature Tropical storm-like conditions where the winds reach up to sixty eight mph. The natives were worried about people trying to get inside and used dynamite to blow the opening close in 1954.
