I think I found Kincaid's Cave...

 ...but have run into Google Maps trickery.

In this video, an account from a contracted explorer for the Smithsonian Institute in 1909 tells a fascinating tale of what he found in a cave deep within the Grand Canyon, high on the banks (well, cliffsides) of the Colorado River:

G.E. Kincaid wrote:


So not only did this man find Egyptian artifacts, hieroglyphs, and mummies, but he also notes there were Vedic artifacts, such as a Buddha-like statue and lotus symbolism. 

The implications of this are large, if you study ancient history and have considered the blue-eyed Egyptian and Vedic society relationship, which is far too dense to go into here.

Anyway- I wanted to know where this "Kincaid's cave" is located, so I went on a little hunt. Judging by certain accounts of mile markers, directions of currents, and descriptions of landscape, I think I've honed in on the general area, within 5 miles at least of where this mythical cave opening could be found. Of course, it's almost impossible to get to, and exists in an area of the Grand Canyon where no visitors are allowed, apparently not even park officials--ya don't say!?--not to mention, it's bordered or even within Navajo territory.

But, as for where it is:

Head over to Google Maps and search for "Nankoweap Granaries" (North Rim, Arizona). Scroll down (southward) along the Colorado River there until you see the LCR Confluence Overlook on the right of the river.

Just north of that overlook, you'll notice that a strange artificial looking line seems to have been overlain on the aerial image, almost as if the true landscape is being covered or hidden from view by a similar, but false, image. 


I thought that was a little... odd.

The line just so happens to fall right around the area I estimate Kincaid's Cave is located, to the right, or eastern, side of the Colorado River there. 

Did you know that most of the monuments in the Grand Canyon have Egyptian names? Interesting, yes? Watch this video for more fun facts.
